Hot appetizers

The tradition of serving warm appetizers before the main course has deep roots not only in Japan but also in other countries with a developed culinary culture. This dish is served first to warm up your taste receptors and open the doors to new culinary experiences you are about to explore. It can enhance the variety of your diet and prepare you for a new gastronomic adventure. Japanese cuisine is known for its diversity and unique dishes that combine traditional elements with modern flavor experiments. In general, when you choose a warm appetizer in a Japanese restaurant, you can be sure that you will enjoy not only an excellent starter but also gain several health benefits.

At Sushi Jo, we have selected the best that Japanese cooking techniques can offer for warm appetizers. In our menu, you will find Tempura-style appetizers – a frying technique that involves a variety of ingredients encased in a crispy batter. You can choose from our assortment of calamari, salmon, or shrimp in Tempura batter, where each of these ingredients is carefully wrapped in perfectly seasoned crispy batter, gently fried to preserve all its beneficial properties, allowing you to savor the true taste of our freshest seafood. We also use the same crispy coating technique in the preparation of our rice balls, which we have prepared for you with three fillings – salmon, shrimp, and chicken. On top of each of these elegant balls, we have added our magnificent JO sauce, which seamlessly combines all the ingredients into a unified and delicious whole. However, our gyoza – a type of Asian dumplings, are the most popular. You can choose them with shrimp or chicken filling (even your children will love them). The finely ground, perfectly seasoned filling and thin dough harmonize wonderfully, pleasing everyone. The green onions and sesame seeds we add to the top of these elegant dumplings only complement the overall impression and bless your taste receptors for your subsequent culinary journey.
