The same local families behind Tokyo Cafe and Shinjuku Station set their sights on traditional Chinese-inspired dishes, with dazzling results. The must-get mapu tofu teams squares of silken tofu with ground pork. Another popular dish is the scallion pancake, a savory, salty flatbread with a pastry-like texture. Chinese pork ribs, marinated in a bright red beet and honey sauce, are another delight. Brightly decorated with strikingly colorful wallpaper and mid century modern furniture, the restaurant resides in a residential area in a converted 1935 house, making you feel at home.
