OKKON Pop-Up: Japanese Street Food, Sunday 6/28, 2-6 PM

Oakland's Okkon Pop-Up brings scratch-made okonomiyaki to DECANT — dough, sauce, and mayo all homemade with love! Sunday, June 28, 2–6pm.

RSVP is free. Food is available for purchase at the event. Wine, Sake, Beer, and Alcohol-Free drinks by the glass or bottle also available.

SPECIAL GUEST: Sake Expert Eduardo Dingler pouring his favorite sakes!

Space is open — but let us know you're coming so we can plan accordingly!

About Okkon: Okkon is a husband-and-wife operation out of Oakland, California, dedicated to sharing okonomiyaki — one of Japan's most beloved street foods — with the Bay Area and beyond. Satoshi and Sachi Kamimae have popped up everywhere from Izakaya Rintaro to Temescal Brewing, and this is their first time in Napa. Follow them on Instagram @okkonpopup.

Organic and local ingredients meet Japanese soul!
(Full menu coming soon.)

🌱 Wild Idea: Should We Build a Community Garden on the Patio?

Okay, hear us out. We've been kicking around the idea of starting a community garden — a shared little patch where neighbors can get their hands dirty, grow some plants, herbs, flowers, while having a sip and sharing local gossip. Very on-brand for a place that believes good things should be shared, not gatekept.

But we're not doing it without you. If a DECANT community garden sounds like your kind of thing — reply and tell us! Whether you'd plant, plot, dig, water, or just show up with snacks, we want to know if there's a crew for this. Enough yeses and we'll dig in!

🪑 Moving Sale: DECANT SF's FF&E List Is Up for Grabs

We're selling off a bunch of our furniture, fixtures, and equipment — and we'd love for it to land with people in our community rather than a dumpster.

Want the list? Just hit reply to this email and we'll send it your way. First come, first served, and everything must be picked up by Saturday, June 28 from our San Francisco location.
