The name means ‘dream’ or ‘fantasy’, but there’s nothing wishy-washy about this defiantly workaday Japanese canteen – a busy & popular rendezvous that fully justifies its standing among the City’s Japanese eateries. Perch up at the kaiten counter or find a space in the more formal dining area to one side. Either way, the kitchen delivers a long list of ‘great-value’ set lunches from chicken teriyaki with poached egg, tempura, rice & miso to a bento box of tuna sashimi on vinegared rice. Sushi fans will be also be impressed by the sheer variety of very decent stuff on offer, from marinated mackerel sashimi to surf clam nigiri. ‘Approach with caution’ if you’re ordering from the more expensive carte, advises one reader. Drink tea, saké or Japanese beer.
