History
Established in 2015.
Nabe Harlem opened it's doors in January of 2015. Nabe Harlem was inspired by the owner's love of Nabe (Japanese hot pot) and Zaru Soba (Cold buchwheat noodle dish). Larry, a native of Harlem, lived in Japan for a number of years after College and developed a deep appreciation for the variety of healthy dishes that are part of the Japanese diet. Where as Americans tend to associate healthy eating with the consumption of raw salads, consisting of a limited range and variety of ingredients, the Japanese consume a vast variety of mushrooms, roots, herbs, flowers, fruits, and vegetables, not seen in the american kitchen. These ingredients are again prepared and combined in different ways, creating a seemingly unlimited menu of tapas and entree choices. Some of Larry's favorites are Kinpira Gobo, Zaru Soba, Hiyayako, and Chanko Nabe, just to name a few. Nabe Harlem's mission is to broaden the American perspective of what is Japanese food.
