Podcasts about Omakase

Wrestling Omakase is back with another new episode! John is joined by returning guest Paul Volsch from the Emerald FlowShow (@EmeraldFlowShow on Twitter & Bsky) and first time guest Will Young from VOW and his Creative Control PW blog (@CreativeControlPW on Bsky) to break down three big shows from Japan! But first, John gives an update on the current podcast schedule (as you may have noticed, we're doing these things more often again now!) and some brief thoughts on two major recent joshi shows: STARDOM's All Star Grand Queendom and Sendai Girls' Meiko Satomura Retirement Show.Then all three of them get into the main topics, starting with NOAH's big Sumo Hall show from May 3rd. They discuss NOAH's best attendance number at Ryogoku in six years, OZAWA's title reign and whether or not it should have ended here, whether the booking has been affected by Tetsuya Naito possibly coming in (and actually get breaking Naito news during the middle of recording!), and break down every match on the card as well.Afterward they review NJPW's two Wrestling Dontaku shows from 5/3 & 5/4 in Fukuoka (after a brief overview of big matches from two previous stops on the tour in Hiroshima & Saga), including: full breakdowns of every match on both show, the Dog Pound Steel Cage match and how it compares to last year, directions heading into Dominion, Tetsuya Naito & BUSHI's goodbye to New Japan (for now?), LIJ's official breakup, Hirooki Goto's already record breaking title reign and how it compares to other recent title reigns, a bit of a mea culpa from John on Callum Newman, ZSJ & Shingo being the next title challengers and whether Shingo might win the title (and turn heel??), Kyushu Pro involvement, and much more! A packed, three hour-plus show with all the Japanese wrestling talk you can handle!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Wow, TWO new episodes of The Most Active Podcast in History™ in one month?! Aren't you lucky?? Yes, John is back again this time with a special double-sized episode of Omakase that's essentially two episodes in one!For the first half, John is joined by Beth (@lovesongwriter on X) as the two longtime Tetsuya Naito superfans talk about the shocking news of his & BUSHI's departure from New Japan Pro Wrestling. They get into their feelings when the news dropped, what it was like to get checked in on by everyone they both knew like someone just died, wild speculation on what might be next for Naito (and what they would personally like to see as fans), and discussion of his career and legacy with New Japan!The second half of the episode sees John joined by Velkej Bracha (@Velkej_Bracha on X), host of the ActWres Stage podcast (here's their most recent episode on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDfPF6W4M9U) and a longtime STARDOM/joshi fan for a full primer on the World Wonder Ring in 2025! John and Velkej go over what they both feel has been the promotion of the year so far, discussing the incredibly deep roster, various units, and some of the biggest moments and matches dating back to last December's Sumo Hall show. Then they launch into a preview of STARDOM's huge All Star Grand Queendom show from Yokohama Arena next week (which Velkej will be attending live!), plus a brief preview of the final Korakuen show a few days earlier as well.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Você pode não gostar do ambiente do Omakase Nihon. Mas com certeza vai gostar da comida. A decoração tem grafites de gueixas e samurais nas umas flores pintadas, luz baixa e tem musica ao vivo – a música é do vizinho, mas como é do mesmo dono, eles quebraram as paredes e é como se fosse ali, mas a comida. É bem boa!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A combination of factors will likely lead to higher costs for restaurants this year. Denny's hit the reset button and is preparing for growth. And a traditionally Japanese menu style is finding its way into all sorts of concepts.

Today on the podcast Eric is joined by Marcos Juarez of Hidden Omakase.

Today, he's celebrated for his exquisite omakase and the lively izakaya atmosphere at Royal.

He's also preparing to launch Dancerobot, a high-energy restaurant serving Japanese comfort food.Join us as we explore Jesse's culinary journey, from family traditions to his leadership style and his commitment to mental health and sobriety.

Just a few days before Christmas, Chef Ray and his business partner Cherry Phetleung gave our city a gift by welcoming their first guests to 1033 Omakase as part of its soft opening. The non-numerical part of the restaurant's name means “I leave it up to you,” reflecting the control that diners turn over to the chef as part of their experience.For this initial phase, 1033 Omakase will offer just three seatings per night Wednesday through Saturday, with a maximum of six guests per seating. The experience is $119 per person, and you can book your spot via Resy.Moving from a new spot to an old favorite, Azhar Shah and his family reached out to the community this week with a plea to help Pakistani restaurant Shah Jee stay on its feet. Their goal is to raise $180,000 for operating costs and maintenance needs, so if you have the means to help a longstanding member of Milwaukee's restaurant community, please head over to the fundraising page and give what you can.We'll wrap up this final installment before the holiday with a trio of dispatches from Ann's desk at Milwaukee Magazine. First up is her glowing review of The Commodore, the newest jewel in The Bartolotta Restaurants' culinary crown. The adjectives describing her experience should give you a sense of the place — “elegant,” “delectable” and  “revelational” among them.We also have quick chats about two items you'll only find in the pages of Milwaukee Magazine's desserts issue: her interview with the pastry chefs from Ester Ev, and an instructional on how to poach a pear and make Creme an Glaise.

Our guest is Phillip Frankland Lee who is the chef/owner of Sushi by Scratch.  Sushi by Scratch Restaurants began in Los Angeles and New York marks its tenth location, which opened in September 2024. Phillip is known for innovative omakase-style sushi preparations, while still respecting the values set by sushi masters. For example, he uses premium seafood mostly from the Toyosu Market in Japan and he imports rice from Toyoama Prefecture and mills it in-house.  On the other hand, he pays homage to his American upbringing by flavoring hamachi yellowtail with sweet corn pudding and topped with a sprinkle of sourdough breadcrumbs. Sushi has come a long way in the U.S. since the 1960s when it was introduced to the general public for the first time.  Sushi is now one of the most popular foods in the U.S. and great talents like Phillip seem to be making it uniquely American.  

Milwaukee gets its first taste of Japanese omakase in a new brick and mortar run by Chef Ray. Wanna make pho the right way? Ann and Tarik have details on some pho-making classes. Also, the Pfister hosts the Vince Lombardi Cancer Foundation's Food & Wine event with celebrity chefs on the second day of this long-running two day event. Plus the Dubbel Dutch Hotel is opening a Victorian-style teahouse to be run by the folks at Discoure Coffee.Produced and edited by Marcus Doucette

Jonas en Jeroen zijn dol op sushi. Wie niet? Maar de kwaliteitsverschillen tussen de a la minute gemaakte kadootjes die je krijgt bij een goede Omakase, en de blokjes koude rijst in de supermarkt zijn enorm. En hoe kan je thuis iets maken dat goed genoeg is?Jonas is dit konijnenhol ingedoken om te achterhalen hoe je rijst, azijn en vis bijeenbrengt tot iets moois. Snel werd duidelijk dat we ons gingen beperken tot de Nigiri sushi. Toen Jeroen halverwege een Excell sheet kreeg toegestuurd met verhoudingen rijst, azijn, suiker en zout wist hij hoe laat het was: grondig onderzoek en een onderbouwd recept. We zijn immers Wat Schaft De Podcast.Voor de fijne kneepjes en de handigheid, hebben Jonas en Jeroen hulp gekregen van Sushi Fanatics, een insiders favoriet in Amsterdam. Daar bleek dat het snijden van de vis en het vormen van de sushi ook goed te doen. Bovendien had eigenaar L slimme tips om te voorkomen dat de rijst plakt en voor het kiezen van de juiste vis.Kortom: alles wat je wil weten om je sushi game naar het volgende niveau te tillen.Verlengd: gratis verzendkosten Wat Schaft de Podcast Huiswijnen boxDe WSDP huiswijnen zijn zo'n groot succes dat de boxen op enig moment niet meer leverbaar waren.

After a string of formative restaurant experiences in Detroit and Chicago, Norman Fenton, preoccupied by wanderlust, got in his car and drove to Tulum, Mexico. In this week's episode, he tells us all about a journey that shifted the trajectory of his career and life — what he learned about food, leadership, and hospitality, all lessons he's showcased by opening Cariño, an immersive, innovative taco Omakase joint in Uptown. Hear about his adventure in an episode that covers: the merits of experience over formal training, the challenges and opportunities inherent to opening a new restaurant, how to cook stoned, and so much more.

Niki Nakayama's cooking is driven by intuition. At her two-Michelin-starred restaurant, n/naka in West Los Angeles, she masters modern kaiseki, a Japanese dining discipline focused on taste, texture, and presentation. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Nakayama began her culinary career at Takao restaurant in Brentwood and refined her skills in Japan. She later opened Azami Sushi Café, gaining fame for her omakase menu.At n/naka, Nakayama creates exquisite, seasonally-inspired dishes, making it one of L.A.'s toughest reservations. The restaurant has been on the Los Angeles Times' “101 Best Restaurants” list annually since 2013 and has garnered widespread media attention. Nakayama was a James Beard Foundation Award finalist for Outstanding Chef in 2023.Sustainability is key at n/naka, with 70% of ingredients sourced locally. Nakayama's kaiseki philosophy highlights natural flavors and seasonal purity. During the pandemic, Nakayama and her wife, Carole Iida-Nakayama, launched n/soto in West Adams, starting as a takeout restaurant and later becoming an izakaya-inspired eatery.***CHA-CHING!

 Japan's culinary culture has its own unique style, with both food preparation techniques and dining practices continually evolving through exploration and innovation. The recording location for 'Omakase - Dining Environment' is at an Omakase restaurant in Tokyo. The literal meaning of Omakase is 'I leave it to you.' The chef presents a series of dishes, starting from the lightest to the heaviest, and ending with dessert. During this experience, customers do not need to place orders; they simply wait for the chef to serve what they have prepared.  Patrons who choose the Omakase style expect innovation and surprises from the chef's menu selection, turning the meal into an artistic performance. Some may even view it as a form of 'gambling' because customers do not know what the next dish will be.  Throughout the dining experience, there is minimal communication between customers and the chef. The chef informs the customer of each dish's name, and the customer enjoys the meal. Recorded by Zion Bai.

This is not just dinner, it's an experience! Omakase Por Favor translates to "trust the chef, please." Their blind multi-course Omakase menu is curated daily by Chef Jeana. They also have an à la carte menu. This coastal Mexican/Japanese fusion has some of the best oysters we've ever tried!

Our guest is Morgan Adamson, the chef at Hoseki, a six-seat omakase sushi bar located at Saks Fifth Avenue in Manhattan.In previous episodes, we had several non-Japanese sushi chefs who proved that America has a distinctive pool of talent, and that the American sushi culture is on healthy ground. Morgan is definitely one of these talents, and being female, she is particularly unique as the traditional sushi industry has been notorious for not welcoming females to lead the sushi counter.In this episode, we will discuss how a young woman from Michigan got into sushi, how she studied sushi-making and built a successful career, a unique concept of Hoseki where she expresses her own sushi-making philosophy, her advice to future sushi chefs in America, and much, much more!!!-----THE NOTO PENINSULA EARTHQUAKE DISASTER RELIEF As you may know, a major earthquake struck Japan's Noto Peninsula in Ishikawa Prefecture on January 1st. The death toll keeps climbing and the damage to the beautiful region is tremendous. Importantly, 10 of the 11 sake breweries in the Noto Peninsula were completely or partially destroyed. So if you can, please donate through reliable organizations including: The Japanese Red Cross https://www.jrc.or.jp/english/relief/2024NotoPeninsulaEarthquake.html Peace Winds America: A fundraiser by US-Japan Foundation/US-Japan Leadership Program https://www.globalgiving.org/fundraisers/49472/ 　The Ishikawa Sake Brewers Association https://www.ishikawa-sake.jp/index.php　(the donation account details) https://www.ishikawa-sake.jp/images/97-1.pdf) Heritage Radio Network is a listener supported nonprofit podcast network.

Sometimes, it's the most fun to chop it up with friends. And when your friends include legendary sushi chefs and top DJs, all the better. This week we brought to Happy Half Hour Chris Cantore, a former voice across San Diego's radio airwaves, and his long-time buddy, North County sushi chef Tyler Mars. Troy goes way back with the duo, having been both a music and food journalist during his career. The pair just launched Needlefish, an omakase and record-spinning pop-up that they plan to take around San Diego, and hope to one day make a brick-and-mortar location. In fact, they held their first event for SDM staff just a few weeks ago to rave reviews. The idea is simple: fresh fish and good tunes, vinyl-only. Cantore says he likes to bring back the classics, like 90's hip-hop, punk, and stoner rock like Queens of the Stone Age. Tyler pairs that with his own sliced fish creations, served on warm vinegared rice and usually in combination with other condiments and ingredients you haven't experienced eating sushi before (think thin-sliced prime rib eye and chimichurri, for a non-fish example). Though Needlefish is new, the duo's idea is not. They both wanted to open up a spot together 25 years ago. But they were scared, and life happened. So did kids, and marriages, and careers, and the transitions of said careers, and Mars' eventual cancer diagnosis. The latter came in 2021 but Mars is now in remission. “It's really because of what happened to Tyler that we finally had the courage to pull the trigger on this,” Cantore says. “We realized that life is short, and you don't know how much time you have left. You have to do what you love to do, and this is what we love to do.” Stay tuned to our pages to find out more about where these guys will be popping up and when. Follow them on @needlefishco on Instagram for the latest updates. We also chat other food news around town including our Best Restaurants issue! Mission Hills' jewel Wolf in the Woods took home the top prize of Best Restaurant, while North County brunch temple Atelier Manna won Best New Restaurant. Check out all the other critics' and readers' picks here. Basic Pizza is also closing its doors, which opened in 2006, when Petco Park was just two years old. It's moving to the other side of the park, though, so fret not (and, also, it's the same owner as all the URBN restaurants with similar menus). And, finally, beloved LA Japanese chain Katsuya is coming to UTC with Katsuya Ko, which offers more of an izakaya-style menu geared towards younger consumers.

Our next guest is a Certified Sake Sommelier. He was recently nominated for Sommelier of the Year by The Jean Banchet Awards. He's currently a manager for Sushi San and The Omakase Room at Sushi San. His love for hospitality and knowledge of sake are palpable. We go into his personal journey with sake as well as explain where one would begin when trying sake. Please enjoy my conversation with Daniel Bennett. Justine and I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Omakase Room, and we had a blast. The food and beverage exceeded expectations, and the service was more playful compared to other Omakases. Regardless, I highly recommend you seek out an Omakase experience if ever given the opportunity. https://instagram.com/kanpai_guy

Yum! Brands recently reported their earnings, a significant event for any publicly traded entity. CEO David Gibbs provided some noteworthy news during the call. He shared: "I'll now share some more details on the fourth quarter specifically. During the quarter, top line sales were impacted by the conflict in the Middle East region with varying degrees of impact across markets in the Middle East, Malaysia and Indonesia. This represented a low single digit headwind to Yum!'s overall fourth quarter same-store sales growth." The company's activities reflect the thematic trends that Gibbs elaborated on during the call. Yum! Brands continues to advance its digital strategy, introduce innovative products and service, and institute sustainability initiatives. In the digital domain, the company, accordingly to statements made during the earnings call, has generated nearly $30 billion in digital sales in 2023. This figure demonstrates their commitment to leveraging digital platforms vis-à-vis innovative proprietary technologies and AI-driven capabilities to improve operations and provide a competitive advantage to their franchise partners. Innovation remains at the core of their offerings. Gibbs pointed to Burger King Singapore's marketing campaign and KFC's Omakase dining experience as representative of their ambition to engage consumers using unique strategies and diversify their brand's appeal. Yum! Brands sustainability drive reflects their corporate social responsibility. As referenced by Gibbs during the call, initiatives like Burger King's plant-based menu signifies the company's commitment towards offering sustainable food options and reducing their environmental footprint. As reported during the earnings call, Gibbs foresaw a strong year ahead for the company. "Looking ahead, we expect development in 2024 to continue at a robust pace. In the first half, KFC will reach 30,000 units and Pizza Hut will top 20,000 units. At KFC, we enter 2024 with more development commitments than last year," he stated. He mentioned a potential growth opportunity in China, with Yum! Brands planning to expand their KFC restaurants' reach in that market. It's worth noting that this analysis is based on information derived solely from the earnings call and requires further research for a comprehensive understanding. Based on the company's earnings call and its activities aligned to the themes discussed, Yum! Brands seems to continue emphasizing on their digital strategy, innovation and sustainability. However, the company, like any other, also faces challenges and uncertainties that may influence their path ahead. Despite the contributions made to their portfolio and business strategy, the landscape of the quick-service restaurant industry remains highly dynamic and competitive.

We're back once again for another Very Special Episode of Wrestling Omakase! John is LIVE ON LOCATION from the Conrad and also a random AirBNB in Tokyo, as they're joined by returning guest Paul and THE BEBBLER to discuss all things Wrestle Kingdom 18! All three of them go over everything you could ever want to know about attending WK live, including various seat sections and what you might get when you choose them, beer girls (and their fanboys), fan calls, food options and much more! They also of course review the show in some detail and give their thoughts on the various matches. Once that's out of the way, it's time to go BACK IN TIME to earlier recorded audio with John & Paul from their AirBNB (which is why the sound is slightly different- it had a very high ceiling!) following the AJPW 12/31 show from Yoyogi National Gymnasium #2. John & Paul discuss the incredible Miyahara vs. Nakajima main event, Nakajima's Inoki tribute trolling, a big junior title change, and just talk about how much better it is to attend shows in Japan than in the West in general.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
