Japanese flavors spring to the forefront of Delaware’s dining scene as these six local eateries practice the Land of the Rising Sun cuisine.
When Robert Lhulier isn’t in the kitchen, the private chef bellies up to the sushi bar at Takumi in North Wilmington, where sushi chef Hideyuki Okubo prepares an amuse-bouche, a paper-thin slice of pearlescent flounder folded around a shiso leaf, served with ponzu sauce and fresh ginger.
“
Takumi means ‘artisan’ in Japanese, and that’s what Chef Hideyuki is,” Lhulier says. “He has put out beautiful, fresh sushi and sashimi for over 20 years.”
