What Is Kaiseki? New York’s Next Japanese Dining Trend, Explained | Eater NY
"A creative, 10-course kaiseki that channels chef Rafal Maslankiewicz’s Polish roots ($185), this Fort Greene dining room blends Japanese tradition with personal influences from a cook trained at Masa and Eleven Madison Park. The most revelatory dishes are the Polish-inflected ones, like an okinawa potato with braised red cabbage and pops of black garlic puffed quinoa, and a memorable last course: a solitary knedle — a traditional Polish dumpling made from sweet mochi flour — stuffed with cheesecake in a pool of black sesame sauce and sour cream." - Andrea Strong
