Wasan Brooklyn

Where to Drink Sake (and Pair It With Delicious Food) in NYC | Eater

"Casual and sweet, Wasan is the perfect place to unwind with an extensive menu of Japanese favorites, like delicate pickled parsnip and cabbage (both scented with yuzu) and a refreshing bowl of hiyashi chuka (chilled ramen), or indulge in unaju (rice topped with unagi prepared in the kabayaki way, glazed in sweet soy and barbequed) and decadent sirloin steak cooked on a hot stone. Chef Kakusaburo Sakurai and sake sommelier Toshiyuki Koizumi have worked together for almost a decade now, creating dishes specifically meant to be eaten with a healthy serving of sake. The list is usefully sorted by flavor profile, with seasonal specialties like aged sake and homemade offerings like chocolate nigori (unfiltered sake) making an appearance." - Vox Creative
