  • Jupiters Reveals New Japanese Restaurant - Kiyomi
    MEDIA RELEASE Tuesday November 11, 2014 Jupiters reveals new Japanese restaurant - Kiyomi Jupiters Hotel & Casino will open the doors to Kiyomi, its newest restaurant and bar in December. The new venue will serve a modern, yet distinctly Japanese menu created by internationally recognised Restaurant Executive Chef Chase Kojima. Chase Kojima specialises in cutting-edge Japanese cuisine using unique combinations to create exciting and surprising dishes. After leading kitchens for Nobu in Las Vegas, Dubai, London, Los Angeles and the Bahamas, Chase founded Sokyo restaurant at The Star, Sydney in 2011. In its short history, Sokyo has built an enviable reputation culminating in the award of One Chef's Hat at the 2014 The Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide Awards. Dishes created by Chase for his second Australian restaurant Kiyomi at Jupiters include Scampi with Foie Gras, White Soy, Apple and Mizuna Salad, as well as Binchotan Duck Breast with Beetroot, Sansho Pepper and Wasabi, and Salmon Robata with Ssamjang Miso and Watercress. Chase said he loves being creative and cooking with only the freshest produce. "Kiyomi will centre around the delicious flavour, ‘Umami’,” he said. “We will be celebrating unique yet simple flavour combinations which bring the natural flavours of the produce to life. It is all about using simple garnishes, simple sauces and simple combinations to create truly delicious dishes,” he said. The name Kiyomi (a rare Japanese citrus fruit, a hybrid of mandarin and sweet orange) reflects both the creative blend of Japanese and Australian flavours as well as the extensive use of fresh, citrus flavours throughout the menu.

  • PRUNING GUIDELINES Tools: Loppers, Saw, Clippers 10% Bleach and Water Solution
    Varieties - choose one that you will want to eat often, as you will have them much of the year (Four Winds Citrus Variety Chart link in your Resources list) - certain citrus mature earlier than others (see early ripening handout) - Unique varieties: - Blood orange: red flesh is antioxidant rich. Often sweeter than other oranges - Yuzu: very little, but very flavorful juice used by chefs. Believed to be a cross between a sour mandarin and ichang papeda - Keiffir lime: regular lime with bumpy skin. Attractive tree with segmented leaves that are extremely fragrant and prized by chefs. - Buddhas hand: not much juice, but very fragrant pith and rind. Odd shaped and often used as an ornamental - Australian finger lime: oblong green lime with many small lime-flavored orbs inside. Called "citrus caviar" Standard varieties of citrus trees often grow to a height of 20 to 30 feet and the canopy -- or width of a tree -- can spread to 18 to 30 feet depending on the variety. Dwarf citrus trees are significantly shorter and narrower, which provides greater flexibility in planting location. Most varieties top out at 8 feet in height with a proportionally smaller canopy. Despite the differences in height and width, regular, semi-dwarf and dwarf citrus varieties produce the same size fruit. -First off DO NOT PRUNE! Those damaged leaves can actually provide protection for the plant until the air warms up. The plant needs to rally and recover. Pruning might just put it over the edge. Sometimes the plants must remain with that ‘raggedy’ appearance until as late as June and in some cases a full year.
