We Want to Fill Our Kitchen With Dosanko’s New Line of Retail Deliciousness

We’re a pretty satisfied bunch, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t covetous. Sometimes we see things out there that we just must have. Cool Things We Want is an archive of those earthly desires.

Last week our favourite yoshoku-style restaurant, Dosanko, announced the launch of their new retail line of special house sauces and dressings, all of which are made and packed in-house, including their awesome koji salt. Check it out…

Koji Salt, 100g — $7.99
Koji Salad Dressing, 350ml — $9.99
Pork Curry Sauce, 500g (2 servings, frozen) — $18.49
Hayashi Beef Sauce, 500g (2 servings, frozen) — $18.49

Their new retail line is currently available at the restaurant, online from Legends Haul, and via SPUD. Best of the bunch? We love that pork curry sauce like few other things, and can’t wait to load it over rice.

F*ck Yeah: We Want More Cool Collabs with Farms!

It’s impressive to see a farm wielding its power in such a clever and unexpected way, by working with big, universal corporate brands and still maintaining the upper hand in the relationship while doing it. More of that, please!
