Yen
$-$$, Japanese, St-Germain-des-Prés
Fodor's Review:
Japanese
Yen. If you're having what is known in French as a crise de foie (liver crisis), the result of overindulging in rich food, this Japanese noodle house is the perfect antidote. The blond-wood walls soothe the senses, the staff is happy to explain proper slurping technique, and the soba (buckwheat noodles), served in soup or with a restorative broth for dipping, will give you the courage to face another round of caramelized foie gras. At lunch you might opt for one of the bento boxes -- with rice, fish, and vegetables arranged like jewels in a lacquered box. Desserts come from Sadaharu Aoko, who is famous for his green-tea éclairs.
