The two Ginzas (there's one in Chinatown) are thought to have the most advanced sushi in town, but this spot gains extra points for its selection of 15 types of hot sake. Avant-sushi these days includes hot spices, fried morsels, boozy marinades, and presentations with such props as a martini glass. A quick anthology is the "Ginza Surprise," consisting of a daily assortment of chef's eccentricities, such as "caterpillar" maki with avocado scales. There are lots of good appetizers and hot dinners as well, including teriyaki, tempura, and nabemono (one-pot meals).
