The 20 Best Japanese Restaurants in NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"Taku Sando in Greenpoint bakes all their own bread, which is fluffier than a cotton field, with crust the texture of a perfectly smushed donut. Their uber fatty pork shoulder katsu and chicken thigh katsu need every shred of cabbage and mustard-mayo sauce to balance them out, but the resulting sandwiches are awesome, and the egg salad sandos eat almost like egg pudding for breakfast. From the people behind Takumen, this spot also serves natural wine, and has an astroturfed backyard." - will hartman, neha talreja, bryan kim, willa moore
