“I remember visiting Alo four years ago not too long after I moved to Canada and I barely spoke English,” said Chef Ryusuke Nakagawa. “I was extremely impressed by Patrick’s cooking. Since then, I have followed in his footsteps as a chef. He and his skills have had a big influence on me. Cooking with him has been a goal of mine. It is a dream come true.”
The multi-course experience will feature two canapes, four savoury courses, one dessert, and two petit fours, each accompanied by pairings by Alo’s wine director, Christopher Sealy, and Aburi Hana’s sake director, Amy Lee.
The powerhouse collaboration comes after both chefs earned Michelin stars back in 2022 and 2023. Aburi Hana earned a Michelin Star and so have Alo and Alobar. And if you didn’t know, Chef Kriss is the only Toronto chef to receive Michelin Stars for two of his restaurants and also saw Alder make the list of Michelin-recommended restaurants in 2023.
As for the cost of the dining experience, it’ll come to $625 per person.
Reservations for the second collaboration dinner will be hosted at Aburi Hana, 102 Yorkville Ave, and can be reserved online.
When: January 29th and 30th
