## Description

A BEST COOKBOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle 2024 JAMES BEARD AWARD NOMINEE: RESTAURANT AND PROFESSIONAL BOOK RINTARO , the debut cookbook from one of San Francisco’s most acclaimed restaurants, translates the experience of a Tokyo izakaya to the home kitchen. Crowd-pleasing foods like curry rice, tonkatsu, and yakitori, eaten most often at lunch counters and in home kitchens, live alongside sashimi, fresh bamboo shoots, and other dishes that are usually considered part of a more elevated Japanese cooking tradition. Through clear instruction, abundant photography, and utterly delicious recipes, RINTARO demystifies Japanese food for home cooks with over 70 recipes for rice, simmered dishes, homemade udon , and grilled foods. RINTARO shows a cross section of Japanese food that isn’t usually shown in American cookbooks. The book showcases exciting but simple food that tastes both like Japan and California—not fusion food—but the food that you’d expect if the Bay Area were a region of Japan. With gorgeous photography and special design and production touches, this is a book that will live in the kitchen as well as on the coffee table.

Review: Great book - Beautiful, inspiring and thoughtful. Every chef should own this.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Phenomenal Regional Lessons in Izakaya, Japanese Culture, and Cuisine...
*by A***R on October 23, 2023*

Written through the Northern Californian lens of Sylvan Mishima Brackett (though distinctly Japanese) this lovely in depth compendium on Japanese cuisine and drink culture via his restaurant Rintaro and his personal life is a standout in its field! I cook for a living and have devoted a lot of my time to researching, and thinking about Japan and it’s cuisines: plural in that there are so many lovely regional takes on classical canons that one can encounter micro-regions with their own variations, flavors, and colors with the changing seasons to boot! Chef Mishima Brackett documents very well that idea of regionality and seasonality with variations that to me, speak to the true spirit of Japanese cooking and love. I look forward to cooking through the recipes and have already very much enjoyed reading the headers to them, coupled with his stories throughout his life, and the gorgeous details and nuances presented, not to mention the beautiful photography and informal, yet refined design! Thank you chef!
