![This Boston Sake Bar Serves a Dose of Japan
Final stop on a Boston snack tour that feels like a trip around the world: Koji Club, a jewel box of a sake bar started by Alyssa in 2020 to reframe Japanese sake as an everyday drink rather than an occasional sushi pairing. The standout bite is a caviar service served with Japanese chips, paired with a saltine, cream cheese, and yuzu jelly snack that channels a Japanese take on Southern cream cheese and pepper jelly. Its a small, romantic spread that adds up to, in her words, a dose of Japan.
