Helmed by the folks behind New York's Fatty Crab, this modern izakaya in The Working Capitol boasts a sexy industrial vibe, and serves Japanese-inspired plates alongside a wide selection of drinks. For starters, whet your appetite with the moreish Butter Braised Mushrooms ($10). Also try the Crispy Brussels Sprouts ($12) studded with mirin-glazed bacon and served with a karashi-based dip, then move on to the Grilled Duck Breast ($21 or $40) that pairs sublimely with pumpkin purée and red Japanese pickles — an absolute hit. It is essential that you have drinks with your meal, especially the Green Hornet ($18), a tequila drink with wasabi-infused honey, or their special in-house Junmai Daiginjo Sake ($28). This is just the right place for a small group of 4-6 friends to unwind!
