KAMU Ultra Karaoke

Chef Chris Oh teases his Asian-inspired Kamu Ultra Karaoke menu | Eater Vegas

"I learned a new karaoke lounge on the Strip plans to open in early 2020, debuting at the end of March: Kamu Ultra Karaoke will open at the Grand Canal Shoppes next to SushiSamba in a 17,000-plus-square-foot space that features 40 private singing suites, a menu from chef Chris Oh, and cocktails. Oh, who launched his modern Korean restaurant Um.ma. in San Francisco in 2019, is a former Escala chef and original partner in LA’s Seoul Sausage Co., and he also operated Chingu in Honolulu and Culver City’s Hanjip Korean BBQ. The teased menu includes wagyu beef sliders, Parmesan truffle fries, and wasabi honey walnut shrimp, plus focaccia with burrata and potato, or prosciutto and mozzarella, or fennel sausage and mushroom; more decadent options are a 48-ounce wagyu tomahawk steak with bone marrow butter and truffle salt, a seafood tower with chilled Dungeness crab, Maine lobster, Gulf shrimp, and oysters, and a $100 cup o’ noodle served with sliced A5 wagyu sirloin and seared foie gras. Other offerings listed are caviar n’ chips with Ossetra caviar and salmon ikura served with sour cream and house-made potato chips; oysters by the dozen with Champagne mignonette and Tabasco cocktail sauce; kalbi tacos; kimchi fried rice topped with fried egg; and Korean fried chicken, and desserts include chocolate berries, churro doughnut holes, and a sundae with Neapolitan ice cream served with salted hot fudge, sprinkles, roasted almonds, and whipped cream." - Susan Stapleton
