Chef Todd Hammerslag of Umi Star
We challenged every assumption you’ve ever had about Asian Fusion cuisine on this live broadcast from Umi Star! But first, celebrity co-host Adam Lehrman, the Tucson Foodie himself, got things started by going down his list of the latest things making food news lately. We were then joined by David Torkko, beverage director at the Hotel Congress, who whipped us all into whisky shape with details on Whisky Weekend, followed by Umi Star owner Jason Anderson rolling out his vision for this cool Asian Food Bar concept. Our featured guest was Umi Star Chef Todd Hammerslag, who brings his own unique story and special twists to Asian favorites. Unique is what this place is all about, from the setting, to the menu, to the creative cocktails. How about an Asian-style Hot Dog, Sushi bruschetta, and an order of Tater Todds, washed down with a Dublin Donkey Punch? Can’t wait to go back!
