Wynwood Newcomer Shiso Combines Caribbean Flavors With Japanese Techniques
Briefly

Chef Raheem Sealey is launching his restaurant, Shiso, in Wynwood on March 28. This Asian smokehouse creatively blends Japanese culinary techniques with Caribbean flavors, resulting in a unique and flavorful menu. Signature dishes include sake-glazed creamed corn and sticky ribs with furikake. Sealey's Caribbean heritage heavily influences the menu, allowing him to honor both cultures. The restaurant's decor features an urban aesthetic with sleek elements and includes both indoor and outdoor rooftop seating. Shiso aims to offer a distinct and surprising dining experience in its premiere location.
Cooking is something deeply personal to me. I appreciate the simplicity of Japanese cuisine and love combining it with the bold flavors of the Caribbean.
By blending the vibrant tastes of the islands with the precision of Japanese cooking, I'm honoring my heritage while creating something that reflects both cultures.
The dining room at Shisso is sleek, combining concrete, graffiti, and chandeliers to create an urban-meets-glossy space.
The result is something new, surprising, and uniquely mine.
