Hanami Sake Dinner

Hanami is the time in Japan between March and May when the cherry blossoms bloom and everyone goes on picnics to soak in their beauty. And the traditional beverage for these parties? Sake.

We're not going to have cherry blossoms at Dirt Candy but we are going to have sake. In fact, we're using this as an excuse to show you that sake doesn't just pair with Japanese food. Sake is incredibly versatile because it's designed to accompany food, and this is going to be an explosion of flavors.

We're teaming up with Sam Barickman, a Kikisake-shi (sake sommelier) currently at Zuma NYC, to deliver a six-course dinner, each course paired with a different sake.

Sam says:
"We'll be pouring sake from all grades, Junmai to Daiginjo, that range from full-bodied, earthy, and assertive, to delicate, complex, and aromatic."

What's the menu?
This dinner will be a mix of Dirt Candy favorites and I'll also be using the opportunity to introduce a few new dishes. And trust me, one of them is really exciting (to me, at least).

Tickets are $120/person (tip included, but not tax).

So welcome Spring with a dizzying array of delicious sakes and some new summer dishes at Dirt Candy
