About

This is the most central outpost of a popular Japanese eatery (there's another branch in Sukhumvit Soi 19). It's a home away from home for many Japanese expatriates in Bangkok, so not surprisingly the food is deliciously authentic. Noodle dishes come in the form of soba and udon, and there's plenty of sushi, sashimi, and teppanyaki steaks. Female staff wear cotton robes known as yukata and pad around politely, hovering over every detail of the meal. Desserts include the perennially popular green tea ice cream crepe with brandy. The roaring laughter and shouts of "Kampai!" tell you that they're doing it right here. A la carte dishes are small and rather expensive, but they're worth it. And they have good sushi and sashimi sets. Order some saké, take your shoes off, and enjoy.
