The Specials

Everyday the kitchen team is sourcing the freshest fish in Chicago. We receive fish/shellfish from the East Coast, West Coast, Hawaii, Japan, The Mediterranean, etc. Some fish are more common and some have never before been sourced in Chicago or most of the mainland United states. With these fish, we create daily specials. Sometimes more than one special will appear on our specials card. These specials are tweeted daily from our Arami twitter account and from our Sous Chef's twitter account. This blog will be used as a more in depth "tweet" in which we will post pictures and a description of the fish and/or ingredients we are using, On top of the fish specials, we run cocktail specials based on what fruit is in season or what new liquor/sake we may have discovered. Here are some photos taken by our office manager of a few of the specials we have run.

Welcome to the Arami blog.

The concept of this blog is to be an informative platform for our guests and people interested in what we are doing. It will also be used to log any new menu additions and/or special fish or ingredients that we may be receiving from any of our wonderful vendors. There will be contributions from various staff members from the kitchen/sushi bar and our front of the house team. Stay tuned for updates and we hope to see you soon.
