Japanese Dining Sun @ Chijmes Description:
With a high ceiling, teak screens with wooden slats, and glass-enclosed, fabric-wrapped columns, Japanese Dining Sun @ Chijmes looks every inch the upscale Japanese restaurant. But the surprise is that a meal here can be very affordable. And the extensive menu is just as impressive, from starters, salads, sashimi, sushi, tempura, teppanyaki, grilled items, hot pot, rice and noodles to desserts. Worth trying are the premium sashimi platter (served with freshly grated wasabi) and a trio of egg sushi---fresh and simple. The assorted tempura, too, impresses with its crispy and light consistency. Our main dissatisfaction comes with dishes made with cream; the deep-fried, creamy stuffed crab and grilled scallops in spicy cream, for example, are doused in heavy cream that drowns the natural flavors of the seafood. Unique desserts include the kyo-style dumplings (skewered, Chinese-style) and soybean mocha---sweet, savory and totally satisfying.
