Morimoto
Feeling the annual “what-am-I-going-to-do-on-the-most- overrated-night-of-the-year” panic wash over you as New Year’s Eve creeps up? Instead of spending a fortune on a nightclub package where you’ll have to elbow your way through an overcrowded bar serving bottom shelf liquor to a bunch of lightweights who only go out one night a year, grab your buddies and spend that fortune on a scrumptious meal in a swanky restaurant. Whether you’re looking to get lucky later on with that special someone or you’re looking for good eats with good friends before you all head out to a late-night Guitar Hero III party, Morimoto’s tasty fare will start your night right. If you’re a sushi-phobe, like me, there are plenty of cooked options (did somebody say Rock Shrimp Tempura?)…and maybe you can add “learn to enjoy eating raw stuff” to your list of New Year’s resolutions for 2008. Try to make your reservation around 10:30 pm to get in on the noise-making and tiara/hat-wearing action when the clock strikes midnight. Ahhh, spending your entire Christmas bonus on one meal never tasted so good.
