308. Omakase & Eastern Beauty
Season 1 Episode 308
In this episode, Dan takes you inside one of the best dinners of his life—an omakase feast at Asakura in Los Angeles, where legendary chef Makoto Okamoto (La Bombance, Tokyo) was behind the counter. We dive into the artistry of omakase, the history of sake, and a remarkable story from brewmaster Takafumi Sumikawa, whose family’s Sumikawa Brewery nearly collapsed after a devastating flood in 2013, only to come back stronger than ever with their award-winning Toyo Bijin sake. Also, in "Drinks of the Week," we keep the good stuff flowing with a few bottles you’ll definitely want on your radar.
