My good buddy Daiki is a Manly local and chef / owner of Jipang Manly, a small Japanese restaurant that has been serving the locals since the ‘90’s. Daiki’s story is pretty awesome, he started out washing dishes and has worked his way up to be the main man.
I visiting Jipang for his katsu don and an ice cold beer with my girlfriend Jax.
This side salad is fresh, vibrant and perfect for that summer afternoon BBQ. We served this with Daiki’s chicken yakitori skewers.
