Gaijin To Give Away Free Dessert for National Kakigori Day, July 25th

On July 25th, from 4pm-6pm, Gaijin will give away free kakigori at the walk up window while supplies last. 

Kakigori is a Japanese shaved ice dessert. 

Gaijin by Chef Paul Virant is Chicago’s first okonomiyaki restaurant, offering both Hiroshima and Osaka styles of the savory Japanese pancake. A self-described gaijin, or “outsider” in Japanese, Virant embraces this perspective and honors traditional preparations and techniques, as well as pickling and preserving.
