Join us for a special tasting of seasonal food and artisanal Japanese ingredients handpicked from Japan. We'll be sharing simple recipes and knowledge about the food and how some of the dishes are prepared, unfussed, in our donabe clay pots. The menu and recipes are specially created by Naoko (a.k.a. Mrs. Donabe) so we hope you will be inspired to try at home. We hope to see you there!
