Minimalist Japanese meets sumptuous French in a marriage made in culinary heaven. This pretty eatery in the busy Halsted/Armitage shopping neighbourhood is painted in vivid red and blue with hanging lamps above silky gold banquettes. Sample sushi and sake, grab a meal to go or linger over a full meal and wine. The new menu emphasises smaller, sharable portions. Traditional French dishes combine with Japanese sauces, while Japanese dishes take on a French flair. Try crispy soft-shell crab salad, seafood tempura or marinated sea bass with miso sauce.
