From 8 to 28 March, Kabuke will be part for 5 restaurants that will run Okinawa Fair! Chef Rio of Kabuke pays homage to Okinawa cuisine with his interpretation of ingredients and dishes he feels are symbolic to Okinawa.

The Sata Andagi reflects Okinawa’s unique culture and history with a combination of Chinese and Japanese techniques. These sweet critters are crispy on the outside but cake-like in the inside. Chef Rio serves them with a scoop of sea salt ice cream that ties in with Okinawa’s geography as an archipelago, and a beni-imo (purple sweet potato) cream glaze. It imparts the cream glaze with a sweet flavour and beautiful purple hue.

Truly a sweet ending this was. The Sata Andagi was so good it could be eaten on its own! I heard from Chef Rio that he made these with Okinawa brown sugar too. I could have 5 of this no kidding.
