Review "Nothing is lost in translation" in the Palisades where each course of the "exquisite" omakase tasting menu "is a work of art, with subtle flavors, lots of textures and beautiful composition"; the "black town cars disgorging Japanese diplomats" attest to a "dedication to excellence," so "take off your shoes and surrender" to it; D.C.'s Top-Rated Food is "authentically served" in a "tiny," rustic studio akin to "an old Kyoto kappo," complete with "packing-box" seats that "typify the tortured Eastern aesthetic of pleasure and pain."
