south of Shinjuku, this Cambodian restaurant’s
broad menu of delicious dishes, such as beef chilli
curry and tangy shredded chicken salad means that it
has enjoyed a bustling trade for over 20 years. The
pumpkin cake and coconut ice cream is a must. If the
Japanese-only menu is too overwhelming, a range of set
meals are offered, starting from ¥1000. Colourful
travel posters and cheerful Cambodian staff liven up
the no-frills atmosphere. |

A well known landmark in the Omotesando fashion district,
this bright and airy chain sushi restaurant is simple
and exciting – customers take whatever and as
much as they want and pay when finished according to
their number of empty plates. A steady stream of customers
ensures that the sushi, varying from tuna belly and
salmon to sea urchin, is always fresh. Crab mayonnaise,
egg and cucumber rolls are also offered for more timid
pallets. Pickled garlic and hot green tea are offered
for free. |

This Harajuku ‘food concept house’ is sometimes
billed as vegan, and offers healthy, organic dishes,
such as grilled tofu burgers or spinach and white radish
salad, among a menu also featuring meat and fish. However,
it is a welcome find for vegetarians and Paul McCartney
is rumoured to have stopped by. The ambience is relaxed
and youthful, with a range of seating on several levels. |
