You won't find any cheap stir-fries in this traditional Japanese establishment, just wonderful sushi and sashimi. And if you don't believe it, there are certificates on the wall to prove it. The opening hours are also authentically Japanese: the chef shuts up shop at 10p, so this definitely isn't a spot for night owls. One of the best Asian places in town.

Iwase, named after its eponymous owner, serves tantalizing Japanese cuisine. With just four tables, this simply decorated establishment is certainly on the small side, but it's not the size that counts, and the choice of over 31 different dishes is more than enough. The sushi is tasty and is served with soup, just like the typical Japanese style. Visitors can accompany their meal with a cup of green tea or a glass of sake (Japanese beer). The service is friendly and efficient, the prices moderate.

The show that the chefs put on at KABUKI, rival anything you would see at a circus! Salt and pepper shakers fly through the air, cleavers chop vegetables faster than the eye can see and the teppanyaki grill hisses and spits like a wild animal, right at your table! The excellent meat, fish and poultry dishes are all prepared as part of the show. Their wine list is extensive and exquisitely exotic. The prices are high, but then again, you're getting a whole deal more than food! A must try!
