STRIPSTEAK, Michael Mina's modern-American steakhouse on Waikiki's International Market Place, threads Japanese technique through its beef program. The char-broiler lists a Triple-Seared A5 Japanese Wagyu (8oz) finished with sea salt, sake and soy, and a 16oz Akaushi (American Wagyu) boneless ribeye, while a Hot Stone A5 Japanese Wagyu appetizer arrives with yuzu kosho, wasabi and ponzu. Prime Angus cuts are sourced from Iowa and Nebraska. The A5 grade and Akaushi breed are stated on the menu, but no Japanese prefecture/brand or specific Wagyu producer is disclosed, so Wagyu sourcing is only partly transparent.
