Just in time for summer, RA Sushi is introducing a new
appetizer as well as several new sushi rolls and hand rolls that will only be
available June through September.
The perfect shareable starter to any meal, the Edamame
Wontons are lightly fried wontons with a creamy edamame cheese filling
($8). Also great for sharing, four new creative rolls will be offered on the
limited time summer menu. A unique twist on a classic salmon presentation, the Seared
Dill Salmon Roll features cucumber, avocado and arugula, rolled and topped
with seared salmon, lemon and truffle salt ($11). Heat up your summer with the Chili
Shrimp Roll with kani kama crab mix and cream cheese rolled in rice and
seaweed, lightly tempura battered and topped with spicy kani kama crab mix,
crispy shrimp, cilantro and jalapeno ($12).
For a tropical style roll, try the Lobster Salmon Roll
filled with lobster, mango, avocado, and cucumber, rolled and topped with
lobster, salmon and a lobster cream sauce ($13.25). Tempura lovers will enjoy
the Shrimp-Calamari Tempura Roll featuring calamari and shrimp tempura,
cucumber, avocado, and cream cheese, rolled and topped with crunchy tempura
bits, then drizzled with sweet eel sauce ($9.50).
Recently offered as a limited time menu item, RA Sushi is
bringing back three of its most popular hand rolls for only $5.50 each.
Perfectly portioned for one, the rolls make the ideal light dinner item or a
great lunch to-go sushi option when on the run. Each hand roll is wrapped in lo
bok and soy paper and filled with rice and romaine lettuce. The Spicy Tuna
Hand Roll features spicy tuna mix, avocado and cucumber. For those craving
a little heat, the Chili Ponzu Yellowtail Hand Roll is filled with spicy
yellowtail mix in a chili ponzu sauce, cilantro, jalapeno and cucumber. The Shrimp
Tempura Hand Roll is a combination of shrimp tempura, kani kama crab mix,
tuna mix, creamy wasabi sauce, avocado and cucumber.
Beginning in July and available through the
end of September, RA Sushi will be adding four refreshing summer salads to its
menu. The Asian Chicken Salad features mixed greens tossed with chicken,
cucumbers, onions, and tomatoes in a seasoned soy vinaigrette, topped with
sweet cayenne cashews, fried ramen noodles and sesame seeds ($10). The Grilled
Shrimp and Pineapple Salad is a tropical-inspired combination of mixed
greens, shrimp, pineapple and green onion, tossed in a Suehiro vinaigrette and
topped with sweet cayenne cashews ($11.75).
For sushi lovers, the Sashimi Salad
is the perfect choice. Tuna, yellowtail, salmon and shrimp sashimi are paired
with mixed greens, seaweed, cucumber, avocado, lo bok, and poke dressing, then
topped with sesame seeds, wonton chips, and thinly sliced red pepper ($12). A
creative take on a popular salmon presentation, the Dill Salmon Cucumber
Salad is seared salmon tossed with mixed greens, tomato, cucumber and
asparagus, tossed in a house dressing, and topped with dill, lemon and truffle
salt ($11).
Dine Out for No Kid Hungry
On Saturday, August 16,
bluestem will salute chef Charlie
Trotter with a five-course tasting menu inspired by recipes
from all of his cookbooks that chefs Megan and Colby have collected. A portion
of the proceeds from this tasting menu that evening will benefit The Trotter Project.
Megan and Colby have a personal tie to Charlie Trotter and his namesake
restaurant. At the beginning of his career, Colby went to Chicago to stage for
the world famous chef in hopes of acquiring a more permanent position. Instead,
he met his future wife and they began their lives - and success - together.
After getting married, Colby and Megan wanted their first dinner as a married
couple to be at Charlie Trotter's restaurant. Chef Trotter was gracious enough
to come meet them and gave them a tour of the space and kitchen. Since all
those years ago, he's been a drive and influence on Colby and Megan's culinary
endeavors. To learn more about Charlie Trotter Day and the foundation in his
honor, go to TheTrotterProject.org.
You're invited to join us for a memorable First Friday rooftop reception at the stunning Three Points Event Space, located above the Sporting KC offices in the Historic Lowe & Campbell Building.
