"The latest spot from Duro Hospitality group ( Mister Charles , El Carlos Elegante ) has a menu loaded with skewers cooked on a charcoal robata grill and meats from an Argentinian hickory wood-fired grill. On the cold food end, nigiri, sashimi, and handrolls are prepared by a trio of chefs at the sushi counter. It’s not strictly Japanese with Western flair — there’s a Korean fried chicken dish, dumplings, crudo topped with caviar, and even fritto misto. Where there are rules for menus, Norman’s Japanese Grill seeks to break them." - Courtney E. Smith
