Raku Review: A Taste of Home, Untranslated
California rolls, shrimp tempura sushi, teriyaki chicken…and the list goes on. Innovative spirits have strayed from the original Japanese flavors to pursue something new: dishes tailored to appeal to the American palate. While often disdained by purists, this trend should not be perceived negatively. Rather, it should be celebrated as a creative and experimental approach because they are the catalysts for growth in the culinary world.Â
