Bites 2013: Shabu- Shabu
Jun is the only place in the city you can find Shabu-Shabu, commonly called "Japanese fondue." You take carpaccio-thin steak cuts of your choice and quickly boil them in dashi water (dried kelp and fermented tuna flake) with optional spicy sauce and miso paste enhancement. In goes cabbage, onions and other veggies, all of which is spooned out over rice or plonked in bright, house-made Ponzu, Yuzu or sesame dips. (New York strip/$39.50, filet/$47.50, Kobe filet /$89.50)
Best Of 2012: Japanese/Sushi
The champion of sushi and Japanese cuisine has knocked every challenger out of the ring since 2006. This round finds Jun with a new kids menu and a grand re-opening special offering 20 percent off all food items at dinner for a limited time through October, and, according to Jun, perhaps even into November. "Times are tough right now," he says, "so we're going to offer the re-opening special as long as we can." Senior Sundays offer 10 percent off menu items after 7 p.m., and military members get 10 percent off at both lunch and dinner. "But right now, we're not offering the Senior Sundays or military discounts, because the special is a better deal." At the Dublin location, check out the new Japanese noodle menu, or go to Centennial for the teppanyaki grill. — Bret Wright
