"When the wait is over an hour at Win Son, Katabaru around the corner is a great plan B. This East Williamsburg Japanese restaurant does fizzy highballs, good snacks, and unadon that's nice and hearty as the fall chill rolls in. Sure, the karaage fried chicken is great to start with—even better is the black miso chicken with pieces of dark meat slathered in a salty but earthy sauce. Bring a second date to fact-check their chopstick skills, or stop by solo for a chill dinner under an ornate tin ceiling.
