Incredibly excited to welcome @daedae_dk to @nisei_sf on May 30 and 31st for the finale of our AAPI Celebration Series. Chef Dae was most recently known for his time at @noksunyc where he quickly attained one Michein star. Now Dae is focused on opening his own restaurant in New York City. Tickets are live. A portion of proceeds go directly to @bayresistance

I am proud to announce @nisei_sf 3rd annual AAPI Celebration Series line up. Each year we host the series, I am reminded of the strength and resilience of the AAPI community. So many talented individuals working together for a greater cause. After each series, Nisei contributes a portion of proceeds to aapi nonprofits. This year we are standing behind @bayresistance to support immigrant rights in the Bay Area. Thank you to everyone past and present who make this possible. I’m grateful to be a part of something bigger than myself and I look forward to seeing you all next month. For now, enjoy some photos from last year đŸ„ł @xninjason

We’re hugely thankful to everyone who came out to Californios (@californiossf ) last week for a special collaboration with Nisei (@nisei_sf ), the third night in our sold-out Bay Area run of the Anti-ICE Supper Club. It was a truly standout evening on the Californios patio, enjoying life-altering food by chefs Val CantĂș (@valmcantu ) and David Yoshimura (@davidcyoshimura ) while celebrating the immense talent and resilience of the immigrant communities that define our industry. Most importantly, we raised much-needed funds for the vital work of Bay Resistance (@bayresistance ), a powerful network organizing to defend and support our communities in the Bay Area. For those who couldn’t make it out, we encourage you to donate directly at the link in our bio. 📍Next up for the Anti-ICE Supper Club: Mexico City on March 25–26, then Key West, Chicago, NYC, and more. Stay tuned for dates around the country. Photos by @jfierberg

This event is sold out! Link in @roadsandkingdoms bio to see what else we have coming up. On March 10, our last night in the Bay, the Anti-ICE Supper Club moves to the great Californios (@californiossf ), the only two-Michelin-star Mexican restaurant in the United States, for an evening featuring a special tasting menu by two giants of the Bay Area culinary world: chefs Val M. CantĂș (@valmcantu ) of Californios and David Yoshimura (@davidcyoshimura ) of Michelin-starred Japanese-Californian restaurant Nisei (@nisei_sf ). Co-hosted by R&K’s Nathan Thornburgh (@nthornburgh ), the evening costs $1000 per person, with net proceeds benefiting Bay Resistance (@bayresistance ), a multi-racial coalition building mass resistance against ICE, federal overreach, and the criminalization of our communities. After an initial pre-sale to members of R&K Insiders, only six tickets remain to this incredible Bay Area finale. Grab yours at the link in @roadsandkingdoms bio!

The Senbei @nisei_sf People overlook senbei at the grocery store. But as I get older I crave eating it more and more. Especially the baton shaped ones with nori. đŸ“· @xninjason @michelinguide @theworlds50best @thebestchefawards
