"A North Austin sushi restaurant that is hosting weekday pop-up multi-course dinners while it is closed, and that will also open a bar located beneath the dining room later this year. The forthcoming bar will be called Bare and will supply cocktails for the pop-ups; one featured drink is the No Mames Whey (tequila, sake, and edamame syrup). The restaurant’s team includes executive chef Michael Carranza, who previously worked with Gomez at a downtown Asian-Pacific restaurant, and the collaboration reunites two acclaimed chefs (both the host restaurant and Gomez’s previous project received Michelin recognition this year)." - Erin Russell
