billed it as a “Japanese whisky diner,”However, a Thursday, April 27 sneak peek of the street-level spot for local food writers was illuminating. The preview showcased a casual combination of creative craft cocktails and hearty diner-inspired eats with both Japanese and Texas touches.
Food writers sampled half a dozen of the eatery’s bites, which its partners call “Tokyo-meets-Texas” fare. Those included a brisket egg roll, a crab butter roll, Spam musubi, dashi corn waffles and steak bavette. Developed by partner Ben Cachila, formerly of Austin's nationally renowned Japanese eatery Uchi, the dishes all bore heavy Asian influences.
The brisket egg roll married pickled collard greens, queso asadero and its titular smoked meat in a crispy fried wrapper. A chili-herb ranch dipping sauce provided a dose of heat.
