However, last night we went to a very unique "tasting/pairing" unlike any that we had ever been to before -- that being a very lovely Sake Dinner at SASAmatsu hosted by MotivAsians (the premier organization for Asian-American professionals in Greater Cleveland). When one hears the word "sake" they might think of warm-ish nail polish remover while others think Mmm. Prior to dinner yesterday, Jose felt the way the first camp does while myself (Kelly), on the other hand, has always loved rice wine.
Following our very positive experience at SASAmatsu, both of us can now say we're fans of sake -- thankfully, Jose has finally come over to my camp in this regard (as he has with most other things ;)). On a side note, we were deliberating about whether he has only had bad sake in the past or whether his pallet simply wasn't as "sophisticated" as it is now (hmm, this topic is still up for debate).
