On Tuesday, November 6 at 6:30 p.m. Hiroko Shimbo, authority on Japanese cuisine and author of classics, The Japanese Kitchen and The Sushi Experience, graces the kitchen at Books to Cooks with her new book, Hiroko’s American Kitchen: Cooking with Japanese Flavors. Not a fusion nor a Westernized cookbook on Japanese cuisine, Hiroko’s American Kitchen treats local, sustainable ingredients with classic Japanese techniques and seasoning for a truly unique yet authentic experience. Join Hiroko this evening to taste and learn about her approach to producing classic Japanese flavours using local ingredients.
 Hiroko will be assisted by David Gunawan of Wildebeest while Masa Shiroki of Artisan Sake Maker will lead guests through an informative sake tasting. Tickets for the evening are $110.00.
