Executive chef: Darren MacLean
From the OpenTable editors: Nupo, located in Calgary’s East Village, celebrates Chef Darren MacLean’s mother’s love of plant-forward cuisine and innovative sushi. Highlights include BBQ pink oyster mushrooms and Fatty PEI bluefin tartare. Canada’s first custom dry-aging chamber for fish takes center stage, enhancing both flavor and the guest experience. The intimate six-seat Omakase Sushi Bar offers an interactive, one-of-a-kind dining experience, blending craftsmanship with a deep respect for ingredients.
