New Japanese Restaurant Tare Opens With Omakase in North Austin - Eater Austin
"An Austin omakase pop-up and at-home service morphed into a full-on restaurant this month. Tare is now open at 12414 Alderbrook Drive in the North Austin neighborhood of North Star starting on Thursday, January 18. The high-end omakase is run by co-owners executive chef Michael Carranza and pastry chef Danielle Martinez, who are using their South Texas roots to fashion the 15-course meal. This means Japanese, Mexican, and South Texas ingredients and techniques served kappo-style, which means nigiri along with hot and cold composed dishes. Look out for dishes such as Japanese shrimp sushi tamale, akami (bluefin tuna with shaved foie gras), aguachile (dry-aged ocean trout with serrano peppers and strawberries), and the matcha tres leches cake. Then there are drinks, such as the A5 wagyu-washed Old Fashioned, as well as beer, wines, sakes, and liquors." - Nadia Chaudhury
