This D.C. Sushi Chef Dramatically Changes Omakase to Bring it to the Masses | Eater DC

"A Spanish-focused restaurant whose then-manager, Alex Munoz, played a mentorship and partnership role: he helped Uchino with day-to-day operational issues (like reservation apps) and introduced him to Spanish wine traditions that shifted Uchino’s pairing approach. Munoz’s Spanish wine program led Uchino to try new wines—“the first time I tried Albariño,” Uchino said, “I immediately think about white fish sushi”—and Munoz helped pair a sparkling wine with Uchino’s first course and even vermouths with later courses." - Emily Venezky
