Bay Area hotel welcomes Japanese spring with sake dinner

Spiral welcomes spring in the Land of the Rising Sun with a series of gastronomic events that will immerse connoisseurs in the rich history and revered traditions of Japanese cuisine. This March, Spiral features Japanese Master Chef Masahiro Mizumoto as he curates and prepares bespoke menus for an exclusive sake dinner, sake and cheese masterclass, and Japanese cooking class. 

Japanese Master Chef Masahiro Mizumoto

Chef Masahiro brings with him more than 35 years of culinary experience, which he gained from working in Japanese fine dining restaurants in his hometown Fukuoka. Now Sofitel Philippine Plaza Manila’s resident Japanese master artisan, Chef Masahiro heads Spiral’s Japanese atelier and curates the Japanese menu for hotel banquets and events. His expertise in sushi and sashimi—not to mention his special license to prepare fugu or pufferfish—as well as his mastery of the robatayaki and teppanyaki are to watch out for as he brings the flavors of Japan in Sofitel Manila.
