Cheap Eats 2008

Come to this St. Johns favorite for fantastic sushi and solid Japanese offerings, from authentic bento in compartmentalized lacquered boxes ($7.95-$9.95 at lunch) to light, tender tempura ($4.95-$5.50). Don't pass up the white miso soup ($1.50); chef and owner Jin Park makes a fragrant version, loading it up with plenty of tofu and crunchy tempura crumbs. Sushi is reasonably priced for its quality and varies from the usual standards to the very inventive: Jumping Spider roll, for instance, ($7.50) pairs crab and jalapeño. Mmm! (DS)
