I’m still blown away…
Aku’s BBQ didnt start until February of this year. Road bump after road bump and we’re here today - From leaving a business partnership to getting surprise inspections and leaving my home base.
It takes a village to build and there are so many people that have supported me from day 1.
I know a certain someone is looking down and smiling at what we’ve started.

Thank you everyone for getting AKUSBBQ to where it is today… now let’s keep it going 🤙

my favorite part of pop-ups is meeting the owner and hearing the story behind it all. today’s convo with aku was amazing — and the yakitori were unreal. i got pork belly, chicken, chicken gizzard, and the lamb chop.

💭 my favorite hidden gem winery🍷 @noriawines is bringing delicious food-pop ups at their winery, so i had to come visit to check them out!

this time i came, they had the most delicious yakitori🍢 by @akusbbq and mochi donuts+onigiri🍙 by @missmochidonuts ! these japanese-inspired bites paired perfectly with the crisp wines that i know and love:)

💰wine tastings range from $20-$35 per person, but the fee is waived with the purchase of two bottles!

they’re partnering with local artists and food vendors all summer long☀️, so give them a visit for great wine and great vibes! check out @noriawines for more info on future events🫶🏼

Double header weekend with long time favorite @akusbbq !

You heard Hudson. Come thru to @dtsjbrewing tomorrow 5/14 from 6-9pm.
Got all our classic rotation on the menu and some extra stuff for aapi month!
See ya’ll there 🤙🤙

SUP YA’LL

No karen’s gonna stop us. We back at @dtsjbrewing tomorrow. 6-9pm.
Got some special karen inspired yakitori.
Shout out to @jwsworld for the ideas 😂

I owe you all an update.

It’s a repeat of Post St in SJ…
Some unknown Karen neighbor doesn’t like pop ups and bootstrapped small businesses.

We’re postponing events in Albany until we can get everything in order. In typical Bay Area fashion, the bureaucratic red tape and fees NEVER END.

Alameda County has been particularly difficult and expensive to operate. (As many friends have also told me) it’s all political.

Every step forward has been met with resistance, whether it’s from NIMBYs or uncooperative county workers. It’s almost like they only care to see you fail.

Doesn’t matter though. Success comes with sacrifice and we’re gonna make it work!

What’s up ya’ll!
@dtsjbrewing has been great so we decided to add a few last minute dates to the pop up!
Rocking the same Spring/Summer menu with the chazuke and yakitori.
If you’ve been missing the SJ pop ups come through today or next Friday 4/30 and 5/8 from 6-9pm.

This week only we’re welcoming a good friend…
@dj5ulit on the tables!

Come thru for good vibes, good drinks, and even better food!
