Our take: Wicker Park’s dappled sushi dreamscape: Komorebi filters light and flavor through a Japanese lens. Bring a bottle of Junmai and bask in the glow of perfect nigiri.

Wine Pairing: Komorebi' means sunlight filtering through leaves, so bring a light, nuanced wine. Try a Chablis or a delicate Junmai Daiginjo sake.

Beer Pairing: Kagua Blanc, a Japanese-Belgian hybrid beer, pairs nicely. For a local option, try Hopewell Brewing's Swift IPA.

Spirits Pairing: Bring a bottle of Nikka Coffey Gin for elegant cocktails. For sipping, try a premium junmai daiginjo sake like Dassai Beyond.
