Almanac and Ogawa Sushi & Kappo Pop-Up Event in NYC
Our first Philly client, Almanac and Ogawa Sushi & Kappo, and their debut pop-up in New York City!
Our agency proudly hosted these two beautiful spots that are owned by the inspiring working couple of Vy To and Victor Ng.
A big thanks to the more than 70 journalists and industry VIPs who experienced this special celebration.
Almanac, an acclaimed Japanese-American speakeasy-style bar, is at the forefront of the Slow Drinks movement.
It celebrates hyper-local, hyper-seasonal farmed and foraged ingredients in their sophisticated cocktails.
The event featured Almanac’s bar team, led by Danny Childs, the James Beard Award-winning author of “Slow Drinks,” and
ace Philly bartender and Japanophile Rob Scott, who showcased their extraordinary libations.
The drinks were complemented by expertly prepared sushi and Japanese delicacies served by Chef Carlos Wills’ of Ogawa Sushi & Kappo, one of the city’s most esteemed omakase restaurants.
Chef Carlos was personally trained by famed Chef Minoru Ogawa beginning at the age of 15.
Organized at our agency’s HLC 2.0 Studio, Editor in Chief Michael Anstendig and President & Founder Hanna Lee
led a panel discussion featuring Vy To, Danny Childs, Rob Scott and Chef Carlos Wills.
They shared insights about their unique offerings and why Philly is such a compelling F&B destination.
We thank the entire team of Almanac and Ogawa Sushi & Kappo for precisely recreating their sublime drinking and dining experiences
in the Big Apple!
