Sakana no Nakasei: One of three great Tokyo restaurants for aged beef

by Rebecca Milner

It's terrace season, and the thought of a drawn-out weekend brunch — sunglasses on, cocktail in hand — is likely to make any American go weak in the knees with homesickness. Fortunately for those in Tokyo there are several places that do a classic ...
