DOMODOMO, a hand-roll bar located on Houston Street in SoHo, will be popping-up at Montauk’s The Surf Lodge this summer. The restaurant, which has been recognized by the Michelin Guide, uses the best nori, premium rice, and fresh seafood for “an eating experience that is truly unique and special,” said Chef Brian Kim, who is a Culinary Institute of America graduate with over 10 years of experience, including time at Nobu and Four Seasons Hotel Dallas, Blue Fin in Philadelphia, and Manhattan’s Brushstroke.
Diners can expect hand-rolls that include blue crab, tuna, and lobster, among other selections that will be prepared at a specially designed station in the restaurant. The menu will be consistently updated as Chef Kim experiments with new combinations from the local area. Chef Kim is committed to quality and only serves the freshest seafood as well as specially harvested seaweed, housemade sauces, and signature warm rice.
The Surf Lodge, who is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, is ecstatic to be joining forces with the highly acclaimed Manhattan-based restaurant.
