Japan Week's Japanese Restaurant Week 2014 will take place in New York City from February 17-March 16, with nearly thirty participating restaurants. The special dishes served will evoke the "100-Year-Old Flavors of Japan" theme, with a focus on the regional cuisines of Japan.
Highlights include creations that showcase the popularity of Japanese meat during that time, such as Wagyu beef and Bluefin tuna sushi from Megu New York, and sukiyaki from Restaurant Nippon. Regional cuisines such as Kanazawa-style curry, sweet-and-sour fried chicken from Miyazaki, mizutaki hot pot from Kyushu, Edo-mae (Tokyo-style) sushi platters, and more. Some of these dishes will be available for purchase at the Japan Week festival in Grand Central Terminal during March 6-8, 2014.
