Kagami-biraki with Dassai Blue Barrel
The lid of a sake barrel is called “Kagami(mirror)” because of its round and flat shape, and “Kagam-biraki” is when the barrel lid is broken open and the sake is drunk together. This is a time to pray for everyone's health and happiness on the occasion of new beginnings and milestones, and to wish for their fulfillment. This time, the barrel of Dassai Blue, a very popular sake in New York, will be opened.
Food menu crafted by Chef Abe The performance will be followed by a reception where guests can enjoy a sumptuous meal prepared by Chef Abe, who is well known in LA, NY, and Japan. This time, a special Miyazaki beef shabu-shabu will be prepared.
