Our take: Hyde Park’s hidden pearl: Shinju Sushi serves academic-level raw fish to South Side scholars. Bring a bottle of sake and school your palate in marine biology.
Wine Pairing: For 'pearl' sushi, bring a crisp Junmai Ginjo sake or a zesty Albariño. A dry Riesling from Alsace also pairs beautifully.
Beer Pairing: Orion, from Okinawa, offers a taste of Japan. For a craft option, try Marz Community Brewing's Jungle Boogie wheat ale.
Spirits Pairing: Bring a bottle of Suntory Toki whisky for highballs. For a traditional choice, try a premium junmai sake like Hakkaisan.
