My commute from Brooklyn usually includes a stop at Teruko beneath the Hotel Chelsea. Teruko, named after Japanese artist Teruko Yoko, is a fantastic space with even better food and service. While a bit under the radar for the moment, it is only opinion the top spot for Japanese food in Chelsea. The bar also features probably largest Japanese whiskey collection you will ever see. Chef Ono’s menu has something for everyone and it is all delicious. Be sure to find the bright red noren and venture downstairs for a great experience. Kanpai!

GEN’s menu will now feature “mini dons”, this one with a soft “onsen egg” atop seasoned rice and aonori. Feel free to add an extra egg as you may not be able to have just one. Enjoy this mini don with an ice cold Echigo Koshihikari rice lager. Have a happy Sunday! Kanpai!

GEN’s beverage menu includes this amazing sake—Nanbu Bijin Tokubetsu Junmai “Southern Beauty” from Iwate Prefecture. It pairs beautifully with, among other things, sashimi and chicken teriyaki. It has aromas of pear and marshmallow and flavors of green apple, pear and hints of savory umami. Enjoy a glass—or many more—to start your Saturday night off right! Kanpai! #日本酒

I am now working with GEN Restaurant in Brooklyn along my great friend Yasu Suzuki. I have carried this reimagined Tonkatsu recipe and dish from spot to spot and now for a third or fourth time it is again on a menu. Delicious pork loin sits atop Napa cabbage dressed with a yuzu vinaigrette and finished with house made tonkatsu sauce.
GEN is open every day except Monday. Please visit and check it out and enjoy this dish and several other new additions including the new zensai offerings for a delicious way to start your meal. Kanpai!

After a tumultuous May and June I have landed a new project at GEN in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn. I am so glad to be working with my great friend Yasu Suzuki to help this 23-year old restaurant find new life and energy by giving the space and menu a facelift and bringing back some classics. Tonkatsu, Kara-age and Saba Shioyaki are on the menu and be sure to check out the Zensai offerings to start. I will be there today and tomorrow and every week for a couple of days. Kanpai!

One of my favorites—the Kuroki Honten “Memory” Sweet Potato (Imo) Shochu. Made with purple sweet potatoes and black koji, it has an amazing flavor with great depth but incredibly smooth. Enjoy some today as Japan takes on the Netherlands at the World Cup—sadly without Liverpool Red Wataru Endo.
