Led by chef-owner Jacqueline Blanchard, a 10th-generation Cajun with a rich culinary background, Sukeban aims to create an authentic izakaya experience in the heart of New Orleans. With a focus on natural wines, fine sake, and Japanese beers, the restaurant is dedicated to celebrating both Japanese cuisine and the local culture.
