Osaka’s Carpassion

Indulge in authentic cuisine at Osaka, which recently opened in Brickell and boasts several additional outposts throughout South America. In the heart of the restaurant is the signature Nikkei and ceviche bar, where guests can dine while watching Nikkei master chef Rogger Quispe and his team prepare signature rolls and dishes. “Our Carpassion is the perfect combination of salmon and passion fruit,” Quispe says. “It’s not something that people are accustomed to, but once they try it, they can’t get enough. We have served this dish for 18 years; the contrasting flavors and textures have made it a favorite across all markets.”
