Our take: Uptown’s sushi philosophy class: Wabi Sabi Rotary finds beauty in imperfection. Bring a bottle of aged sake and contemplate the transience of toro.
Wine Pairing: The 'wabi-sabi' aesthetic calls for unique wines. Try an orange wine or a pétillant naturel. For tradition, a Junmai Ginjo sake works well.
Beer Pairing: Kiuchi Brewery's Hitachino Nest Yuzu Lager complements the rotating selection. For a local option, try Maplewood's Charlatan Pale Ale.
Spirits Pairing: Bring a bottle of Ki No Bi Sei Navy Strength Gin for bold cocktails. For sipping, try a aged koshu sake like Hanahato Kijoshu.
