Ginza Maru: Kaiseki courses that won't break the bank

Japan's take on the humble burger

There are two dishes that can be translated as "hamburger" in Japan. One is the all-American favorite, a beef patty sandwiched in a bun, which in Japanese is called hanbāgā.

Awomb: Make your own sushi at Kyoto's experimental dining destination

Before getting into Awomb, a few observations on queues and queuing. Or, in American parlance, standing in line (or on line). 1. Nothing turns me off queuing like seeing a queue. 2. Besides staging a crash outside your new shop or restaurant, nothing generates interest quite like a queue. 3. The Japanese...

Spice Chamber: curry as hot as it's meant to be

Spice Chamber is actually more like a closet, or a long coffin; I wondered while I waited for my curry if I could touch both walls at once. At kappō (counter-style) restaurants, you have to leave your guard down a little. One of the attractions of this style of dining is immediacy; you can see every...

Malins: authentic fish and chips day and night in Roppongi

Fish and chips: The United Kingdom's best-known food is no stranger to Tokyo. You can find it at almost every Irish, Scottish and English pub in the city. Many versions are worthy. Some are good. But very few do it right. Not like they do it at Malins.

Pizza Slice: New York-style pie served one piece at a time

No prizes for guessing the specialty at Pizza Slice, or the way that it's sold. What does come as a surprise — especially when you've just schlepped it down to one of the remotest corners of Shibuya — is just what a big, bright, stylish, happening place it is.

Pignon: Bistro dining by different rules

Guacamole and merguez sausages on the menu, salsa and bossa nova on the sound system and not a check tablecloth in sight: Pignon is a far cry from the average bistro. But then again, owner-chef Rimpei Yoshikawa is anything but a typical Tokyo French chef.

Wakuden: An early lunch of budget kaiseki cuisine

Wakuden in Kyoto Station opens for lunch at 11 a.m. Who eats lunch that early? To answer I arrived minutes after 11, thinking I would be dining tout seul. Far from it: The queue was out the door. The reason: Wakuden serves pricey kaiseki (haute cuisine) — sets starts at ¥6,000 — but every day there...
