Shyun

Make like an overworked Japanese salaryman and rush into this cramped diner (expansion plans are afoot) for authentic plates of food ferried quick-smart from the kitchen,or from the sushi counter wedged in the corner. Snare a table,perch on a stool and peruse the laminated menu before tucking into nasu dengaku (eggplant topped with pork mince and miso),takoyaki (crumbed balls of potato and octopus) or light,crisp tempura,followed,perhaps,by a platter of glistening sashimi or sushi such as just-seared aburi salmon. Rotating specials might include satisfyingly crunchy soft-shell crab. A touch of Tokyo down Carnegie way.
