You may recall that last month I reviewed Sushi House and liked it very much. Although it has been around for a while, it had recently moved into a new space and had been reenergized by its exuberant new owner and master sushi chef, Dun Chau. I love the way he embraces tradition and classic sushi techniques but also allows a creative flair.
I’m pleased to announce that Chau has offered to host a special SJO Sushi Supper Club (say that five times real fast). The dinner will be Wednesday, May 16, at 6:30 p.m. I know you’re going to enjoy learning about sushi from Chau. He’ll also have some great tips for dining in any sushi bar that will help enhance your experience (and get special attention from the sushi chef!). This is going to be a great dinner not only for longtime sushi fans but also for those who are new to the experience.
Here’s the menu that’s been planned for us:
First Course
Nabeyaki Clear Mushroom Soup – A savory traditional Japanese soup.
Second Course
Wakame Seaweed Salad Trio, Enjoy seaweed served in three different ways; Fresh, seasoned, spiced.
