The Vegan, Celiac-Friendly Curry House Hiding in a Japanese Market in Park Slope
|
Posted By: Cheer Leader on August 09, 2024 Chefs Taisan Tanaka and Ayane Sakamoto met while working at a preschool and bonded over overcoming illnesses. Up until two months ago, Ayane Sakamoto worked in a school cafeteria. The cafeteria belonged to Aozora Community, a Japanese-English bilingual preschool in Prospect Heights. There, she prepared meals for preschoolers, careful to avoid allergens and make food that was safe for every student to eat. Meanwhile, Taisan Tanaka was Aozora’s art teacher, teaching calligraphy to the students. “One day, we were talking about how [Tanaka] went to a culinary school back in Japan, which I didn't know at that time,” Sakamoto said. “And then we were both talking about how we like curry, so maybe we should do something.” The two came from similar backgrounds: Sakamoto is originally from Osaka, and recovered from stage four colon cancer fifteen years ago, while Tanaka grew up in Wakayama, just south of Osaka, and had two life-threatening illnesses, including diabetes and myocardial infarction. Because of this, both Sakamoto and Tanaka have stayed clear of inflammatory foods, which has influenced their cooking. AND 1: https://www.bkreader.com/lifestyle-culture...
