Haute Eat: A Tale of Sake and Sushi at Okku Dubai
Sake pairing has a special place in Japanese history. Often referred to as the "drink of the Gods" in antiquity, the history of this simple rice wine reportedly dates to the Nara period (710-794 AD) in Japan. While the actual origins of this "rice wine" are mysterious, for centuries it has been used for social gatherings, religious ceremonies and song and dance events in Japan. The growth of the international financial market in the 20th century prompted for mass production of this favorite Japanese alcohol and it soon an international favorite at Japanese restaurants and bars all over the world. Boasting one of the largest special imports of sake in the UAE, Okku is clearly one of the best Japanese dining spots in town in which to experience this revered drink. I headed there one evening to try the delicate art of pairing several courses with a particular sake brew.

That first experience stayed clearly in my mind for many years, until I recently was able to try the restaurant's new Dubai restaurant.
