Muku

Muku, from chef Manabu Asanuma in Tribeca, builds its menu around the five classical techniques of Japanese cooking, raw, grilled, simmered, steamed, and fried, applied with a kaiseki sensibility but without kaiseki's formal structure. The approach favors restraint and seasonality over ornamentation, letting individual ingredients carry the dish. The site lists a dedicated beverage menu, though specific sake program details were not detailed in the pages fetched.
