Imoto at Buccan

Kent Rathbun Makes His Triumphant Return to the Dallas Restaurant Scene | Eater Dallas

"I'm told Imoto, soon opening in Victory Park, will blend multiple Asian cuisines with a specific emphasis on Thai food inspired by Kent Rathbun’s travels and will feature a full sushi bar. Chef Jennifer Newbold, who worked for Rathbun at Blue Plate Kitchen in the Park Cities, will lead the kitchen, while former Nobu sushi whiz Jimmy Duke will helm the sushi bar. Rathbun says Imōto is designed to make guests feel like they’re somewhere they’ve never been — an exotic, cool locale — and the restaurant marks his official return to the Dallas dining scene after a prolonged legal battle; Imoto is scheduled to open on Friday, June 15." - Amy McCarthy
