Japan Meets Peru: Yazu's Nikkei Food Festival Brings Global Flavors to Goa's Shores

Yazu, Goa & Mumbai brings a fusion of Peruvian and Japanese cuisines to you in a festival that welcomes Spring. 

Yazu, the pan-Asian beach club in Candolim, introduces The Yazu Nikkei Food Festival, beginning on March 18, 2024, and running for about a month. This extraordinary festival is about discovering Peruvian ingredients prepared with Japanese techniques, part of a unique Nikkei cuisine. Diners at Yazu will be privileged to add another flavor element to their tasting repertoire. 

First developed by Japanese emigrants who settled in Peru and introduced Japanese spices and cooking techniques into traditional local dishes, Nikkei cuisine was a way of honoring their heritage away from home. 

Yazu celebrates the delicate flavors of Japanese cuisine but is intertwined with the bolder and spicier ingredients of Peru. Each dish has been carefully curated by Chef Vadim Shin, showcasing the rich cultures of both countries and characterized by succulent Ceviches, flavorful Tiraditos, Robatayaki grills, Machu Picchu on fire, and more – a diversity explored in the different courses of the food festival menu. 

Complementing the special menu are the special cocktails crafted by their expert mixologist Ritesh Chaudhary to go with your food, including Yazu Maya-Rita, Maya Melonaire, Mayahuel Highball, and more.
