"A Palo Alto seasonal kitchen from a Japanese-American chef raised in Hawaii channels childhood flavors into modern Californian dishes, drawing on fine-dining experience from kitchens like Daniel and The French Laundry. Menus feature Japanese-Hawaiian–inflected plates such as a broccoli stem salad with pig ears and nuoc cham and a slab of pork ribs with shaved summer crudités and Japanese curry, presented as a personal tribute to the chef’s family." - ByKate Kassin
