No. 70: Sake Flight from Wild East Asian Bistro

When it comes to dining out, if there's anything you know -- it's your booze. At least until you are confronted with a sake menu.

Sake may be served warm, chilled, sweet, dry, filtered, or unfiltered. Additionally, the Japanese labels may be just a tad unfamiliar for some. So with all of this going on, how does one decide?!

Well, Wild East Asian Bistro has a solution for you -- try its sake flight! You will have the opportunity to experience three different sakes for $13. The flight includes a selection of three Tokuri Ikkon Sakes starting with the Red Label (which is comparable to regular white wine), the Black Label (this is a premium sake and is the smoothest), and the Blue Label (unfiltered and sweet).
