The critically acclaimed Hakubai Restaurant at The Kitano New York Hotel will offer an exclusive sake pairing in the recently redesigned restaurant through March 12, 2010, for $30 per person excluding tax and gratuity.
The sake pairing will feature Akira Sake imported from the Kanazawa Daichi organic farm in Japan along with a special tasting menu created by Executive Chef Sato.
Sake Sommelier Chizuko Niikawa, known for her knowledge of sake, selected Akira Sake for this tasting.
The menu — featuring the sake served warm and presented in a traditional Tokkuri Japanese decanter — will consist of three tasting portions of Ika Syuto Ae (squid marinated in Bonito liver), Alaskan King Crab Kani Miso Ae (Alaskan king crab marinated in crab brain) and Tako Wakame Kyurisu (octopus, seaweed and cucumber marinated in Japanese rice vinegar).
