This Week's Personal Picks

CHEF'S #1

Omakase Sushi Selection

Let me choose the freshest fish of the day for you. This traditional "chef's choice" experience includes 8 pieces of nigiri sushi selected based on what arrived this morning from our trusted suppliers.

Chef's Note:

"Today I'm featuring wild yellowtail from Japan and Atlantic salmon that arrived this morning. Each piece is cut at the perfect angle to showcase the fish's natural texture."

Secret Family Recipe

Tom Kha Gai (Special Recipe)

My grandmother's recipe from northern Thailand. This coconut chicken soup uses galangal root that I import directly from Bangkok, combined with lemongrass grown in our herb garden.

Chef's Note:

"I prepare the galangal paste fresh each morning and let it infuse for exactly 4 hours. The coconut milk is from the first press only - no shortcuts in my kitchen."

$13.95 GRANDMOTHER'S RECIPE

Chirashi Bowl (Chef's Style)

A beautiful arrangement of the day's best sashimi over seasoned sushi rice. I personally select and slice each piece, arranging them like a painting on the bowl.

Chef's Note:

"I learned this presentation style in Kyoto. Each color and texture is placed to create harmony - not just delicious, but beautiful to look at. It's edible art."

$24.95 KYOTO STYLE

Comfort Combo

Tom Kha Gai + Thai Iced Tea

"My grandmother always said this pairing cleanses the palate between spoonfuls. The sweet tea balances the soup's galangal heat perfectly."

The Adventurer

Omakase + Miso Soup + Pickles

"This is how I eat sushi. Start with miso to prepare your taste buds, then let me surprise you with the day's best fish. Pickles refresh between pieces."

"Off-Menu" Creations

These special dishes aren't on the regular menu, but I'll make them for customers who ask by name

"Just tell your server you want one of Chef Takeshi's secret creations"

The "Sunrise" Roll

Spicy yellowtail inside, topped with salmon, mango, and microgreens. Named after Florida sunrises I watch every morning while selecting fish.

Bangkok Street Noodles

Exactly like the vendor outside my cousin's house in Bangkok. Extra-wide noodles, dark soy sauce, Chinese broccoli. My childhood on a plate.
