Japanese shop & restaurant with custom dashi, lunch sets, & grilled fish
"A broth shop that is one of the complex’s existing businesses." - Nadia Chaudhury
"At first glance, Dashi Okume is a store. This Greenpoint spot is an outpost of a dry goods seller that’s been at the Tokyo Central Market since 1871. But if you can tear yourself away from the DIY dashi bar and the stunning selection of ceramics, high-end rice, and over a dozen varieties of miso, you can also have an exceptional meal. Snag a seat at the counter in the back of the store and order the Teishoku set. It comes with grilled fish, rice, a few sides, a cup of tea, and the best miso soup you’ve ever had." - willa moore, will hartman, neha talreja, carina finn koeppicus
"Dashi Okume is a Greenpoint store where you can buy bespoke dashi with different varieties of seaweed and fish, or pick up a ceramic bowl for sesame grinding. But look past the dried goods, and there’s a little cafe area where you can have a really nice meal—especially for lunch. (House, a separate tasting menu spot, is also located inside.) Grab a counter seat and get a teishoku set with some grilled fish, rice, and sides. It comes with some truly incredible miso soup, which will justify your dashi purchase as you exit the store." - will hartman, neha talreja, bryan kim, willa moore
"Inaniwa Udon & Dashi: Dinner Series @ Dashi Okume / Friday & Saturday, 8pm; End Date TBD Hot weather means it's time for cold noodles, and you can get your next bowl at Dashi Okume in Greenpoint on Friday and Saturday evenings all summer long. They’re doing a special seven-course tasting menu for $85, featuring Inaniwa udon, a thin and flat noodle from northern Japan (not to be confused with the trending super wide udon at Okiboru). Your meal will include noodles, fried fish, and pressed sushi. A sake pairing is also available for $50. Seatings are at 8pm; make your reservations here. " - neha talreja
"In Greenpoint, the Dashi Okume kitchen will team up with René Redzepi and Noma staff on Thursday for a collaborative service as part of Noma’s New York events." - Melissa McCart
