Weekend plans at Zama
![]() |
Couple things of note going on at Zama (128 S. 19th St.) in the new couple days for starters, the bar's stocking five can't-really-find-them beers from Japan's Coedo Brewery, including Shiro, a non-filtered wheat beer that'll do you well in this weather, and Beniaka, a lager brewed with roasted sweet potatoes (haven't had something like that since Allagash's '09 Fluxus!). All the Coedo brews are $10 a pop except for the Beniaka, which is going for $12.
Also launching this weekend: chef/owner Hiroyuki "Zama" Tanaka's "Sunday Sushi Experience" dinner, featuring 48 pieces of fish, served in three courses, plus vino, for $100. Tanaka will slice up 18 pieces of sashimi, three maki rolls and 12 pieces of nigiri to go along with a bottle of Oroya, a Spanish three-grape white specially blended to be sipped with sushi. The hundo price tag does not include tax and tip.
