Off-Ramp

Sashimi and Wine

About the Show

Over 11 years and 570 episodes, John Rabe and Team Off-Ramp scoured SoCal for the people, places, and ideas whose stories needed to be told, and the show became a love-letter to Los Angeles. Now, John is sharing selections from the Off-Ramp vault to help you explore this imperfect paradise.

Funding provided by:

Corporation for Public Broadcasting

Foods and wine were first paired in Europe where local vintners would craft wines that would go with the local foods.

Of course, wine and sashimi don't have that history... so there are no rules... but Stephan Wong, who owns the Pasadena wine bar The Nose, was trying to write a few. He threw a party where he paired wines with sashimi rarities like Flying Fish and Flying Fish Caviar.

Off-Ramp producer Queena Kim went on your behalf.
