The Newest Additions to The MICHELIN Guide New York: October 2025
"At this Upper East Side spot Chef/owner Nikki Zheng runs a calm, precise 18‑course omakase for about a dozen guests that feels exceptionally well priced for its scope. The progression moves through chilled appetizers and nimble nigiri—examples include Japanese tilefish and tofu with dashi broth, minced squid with shiso leaf, soy‑marinated bluefin tuna and hairy crab—and the meal finishes lightly with a slice of Japanese melon and custard." - The MICHELIN Guide
