"Shabu-shabu Macoron! I learned about this tiny Delancey Street set-menu spot while I was in Kyoto, so I went in expecting something great — when a chef in Japan tells you about a great Japanese restaurant in New York, that really means something. It was perfect. A tiny staff (just chef Mako Okano and her one or two assistants) serve eight diners a multi-course menu that’s clever, simple, and luxuriously delicious." - Carla Vianna
