Asian Dining in Houston Comments

1. I ate at Zake Japanese Cuisine yesterday and I liked the contemporary/fusion restaurant layout. After reading them on Houston Japanese Restaurants Guide, a really good source for Asian dining in Houston, I decided to venture out and check out this place.They have both a restaurant section and a lounge section. I have never quite seen anything like it because it has a bit of club feel to it. Zake has DJ spinning dance music every Friday and Saturday night too. Zake is also a good place to meet a lot of young professionals. I like their sushi alot. Definitely A+ in my opinion.
2. If you ever get the chance to eat at an authentic Houston Japanese Restaurants , do so. One where you leave your shoes outside and sit on the floor in little depressions with the table up to your chin. Lots of dark wood, low ceilings, and moody light. I've never come across an authentic Japanese restaurant in America, but I'll keep looking. It's just amazing that so many cultures (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, etc...) living in such close proximity can have such different cuisines.
3. Oh yeah I know what you mean. The closest Japanese restaurant I have been to with taking the shoes off and sitting on the floor to eat was this place in Austin. I can't remember the name but I do remember the traditional Japanese style dining. Very neat experience.
