Yoshi’s Café
“To bring a little sweetness” to his Wagyu steak salad, Yoshi Katsumura, owner of Yoshi’s Café in Lakeview, marinates eight ounces of beef in sugar, soy sauce, ginger, garlic and sesame oil “for a few hours.” The steak is grilled for one-and-a-half minutes on each side, until it is medium-rare. “It all depends on each person’s taste,” Katsumura says. The steak is sliced into eight pieces, length-wise, and spread atop field greens and thin slices of bright orange mango. For the dressing, Katsumura blends yuzu juice with Japanese vinegar, grapefruit juice and olive oil.
