Belly Fish Hosts Wok Star Supper Club

September 10, 2024 By Eleanor Hoh Leave a Comment

The next unique dining experience in Miami for my next Wok Star Supper Club is a fusion of “Omakase & Keiseki” hosted by Belly Fish in their sleek new Coral Gables restaurant on Sunday, September 29, 6pm. If you already know you want to come, great! This UNIQUE dining experience requires reservations and prepayment as there’s limited seating.

RESERVE NOW!

How’s Wok Star Supper Club different?

This Wok Star Supper Club Event is more than just a dinner, it’s a unique dining experience, it’s DIFFERENT and EXCLUSIVE from just visiting there on your own, see below. It’s about connecting, exploring Asian cuisine, and celebrating togetherness.

Co-founder & Chef Rodrigo has personally curated the best so you don’t have to think about what’s best to order. That’s what “omakase” means, chef’s choice. The “keiseki” refers to multi- courses, some family style so you get to taste more variety and not fill up on one dish.

Coming on your own? Great, I’ll pair you up at a table with other guests, you won’t be on your own. Everyone raved about how much they enjoyed meeting new friends at their table at the last event.

Chef Rodrigo Bravo has curated a very special 4-course Prix Fix menu featuring:  

🍣 Premium sashimi, nigiri & handrolls  
🍴 Mexican tostadas & ceviche  
🍶 Complimentary Soto Sake to start  
🥂 Expert pairing suggestions  
🍽️ Private restaurant takeover, just us!
🧑🏼‍🍳 Hear Chef’s inspiration for each course

Please don’t leave till last minute and be upset you cannot get in!
