Finally, Chief Marketing Officer, Jamie Horowitz, wants to spread the word about the authentic
Japanese dishes at her pick tucked away in the suburbs between the rolls of tapas and
special sauces.
She says the unexpected punch of flavors will keep you coming back for more.
And according to Jamie, it's all about sharing.
So she recommends you pair the good food with good.
It's in Western and it's called Ke-uH
I am Daniel Fernandez, owner and manager of Ke-uH restaurant, and he is our amazing chef
Oscar Noborikawa.
Our mission is to make our customers feels like they are in a very nice atmosphere when
you cozy, the lighted atmosphere.
And without having to drive long distances to Miami or to similar places, they can have
that experience here in Weston
Our concept in here in the restaurant, is kind of our little tapas style.
So pretty much usually people can enjoy between three to four different dishes so they can
try all our menu.
One most our popular dishes here is the spicy horny shrimp tempura.
We make a very unique sauce here with jalapeno aioli, and another with more refreshes, is
the bonsai roll, and we'll use a soy paper.
We just have canny salad mix inside.
And we top it with tuna sashimi with a little bit of juice or truffle sauce.
[Daniel] Ke-uH is a great sharing experience with the best food.
Wow, unexpected spot.
Unexpected spot.
Right, and I love it.
Is it in your suburb?
It is yeah, I live in Weston and I don't know if you guys are normally visiting Weston,
but there are unfortunately a lot of chain restaurants.
So it's always wonderful to have a local smaller restaurant that is not one of the chains,
that has wonderful flavors, a bunch of dishes to try and share.
We always start, I've never been there and not had the truffle edamame and the truffle
is just so delicious.
If you love the truffle flavoring, it's enough on it, where you get that hint to the truffle,
but it's not overpowering and it's gone like two seconds, so we're all fighting over it.
And then we've had several other dishes there, from the time when I went more recently, we
also got the crispy Brussels sprouts, which have kind of like an orange balsamic flavoring
on them and it's not too heavy, it's just enough.
You had this as well, right?
Sucker for Brussels sprouts, yeah.
I know they're trendy.
No, but they're delicious, when they're delicious.
Did you love them?
I did love them, yeah.
They were really good.
And you?
Yeah love them too.
They were actually, I wasn't looking to try the Brussels sprouts, but the server highly
recommended it and he's like, "You know what, I'll just bring you guys something to try."
[Michelle] Oh that's good.
So he literally brought some just for us to try and it was great.
I must say the service was very warm.
Yes, I agree.
From the start to the finish of the meal, we even switched our seats.
We were inside and then we saw a back patio area, We went like, "Oh, that looks pretty
cool."
It's a nice night, we moved out there, beautiful and no problem at all.
That's great.
So what else did you guys have?
Let's hear it.
We always get the Ke-uH salad, which is kind of like a spicy crab where it's just enough
flavor where it's not like overpowering with mayonnaise, but it's like a lighter kind of
touch to it.
And then one of my other favorites there is the yellowtail jalapeno hamachi and it's got
just enough of a hint to that jalapeno to make it spicy, but not so spicy that you're
like, you know, wanting to grab water.
So those are some of our favorite dishes that we have there.
I don't know if you guys...
I think you had octopus?
We did have the octopus, the telltale for a good octopus to me is very tender, yet seared
the right way and it was super tender, so that was good.
We had some nigiri and what I liked about it, we recently went to Japan and it's much
like Japan, where they serve the nigiri with the wasabi inside of the roll so that was
awesome.
It kinda brought me back to Japan.
May, what did you have?
We had the sliders...
[Michelle] Okay, so beef?
Yes it was beef with a quail egg.
The server recommended it to us.
He's like, "You have to get it."
And I'm glad that we followed his instructions because it was so good.
[Michelle] So a fried quail on top of each slider?
Yes.
[Michelle] Nice, how many came in?
[May] Two.
Jamie, you had some rolls as well.
Yeah, we always get the kanisu roll, which is one of my favorites cause it's a rice less
roll.
So it's wrapped in cucumber.
It's similar to a California roll, but without the rice and it's one of my favorite rolls
and I don't see it everywhere I go to all Asian restaurants, but when I see it, I'm
always ordering it.
And theirs is delicious.
You my friend, you had fried Oreos for dessert.
We had fried Oreos.
Is that your first time having a fried Oreo?
No, much like rock shrimp tempura.
It's something I like to have.
[Michelle] Something you like, okay.
Any menu I see it on and it was really good.
So, I should look to you for location.
I mean, you're miss Weston so tell me a little bit about it.
It's right off of 75 in Royal Palm, which is pretty much the main exit for Weston, so
it's super convenient.
It's about maybe two or three minutes off of 75.
So it's easy to get to, there's plenty of parking, it's in a little street mall, which
is common in Weston.
There are a lot of street malls, but it's a great place to go...
You called it right, as soon as you started talking, because there's just a lot of chain
restaurants.
There's a lot of chains.
So I call it like the hidden gem of Weston, at least one of the few that are out there.
So it's just nice to have a place to go to, for any kind of occasion where you don't want
to eat, just regular kind of sports bar food and chains.
Well, Jamie Ke-uH was your choice, please sum it up for us.
I would say Ke-uH is a hidden gem in Weston, great flavors, lots of dishes to try, a really
nice ambience and a lot of fun too.
Aaron?
If you're looking for fresh sushi in West Broward, it's a great place to go and awesome
atmosphere.
May?
Everything was super, super yummy.
There was a lot of flavor and it was different too.
It's not so, so traditional, neither.
There's a little bit of creativity in the menu.
