Young chef Ryan Ratino, seen in the United States as a rising star of American-style cuisine, opened the Jônt Restaurant just minutes from the White House, in a neighborhood of Victorian buildings and art galleries. On the first floor, the open kitchen lets diners watch the team of chefs work in perfect tandem to create a refined meal to the sounds of a hip-hop-inspired playlist. Having acquired considerable technical mastery, the chef is easy-going as he plies his trade. The inspiration he finds in Japanese cuisine is expressed in the simple, perfectly selected ingredients. The Jônt Restaurant takes guests on a journey through the chef’s well-balanced flavor combinations, such as his tarts of Wagyu tartare with marmite made from Japanese barley, or his Miyagi-sourced Sasanishiki rice topped with king crab, cultured butter, and truffle.
