Daikoku-CP-lcm38-1-300x200

Leave behind urban dissonance and enter this place of tranquility to enjoy an authentic Japanese dining experi- ence. At Daikoku, you will find natural elements the owners have used to create a beautiful Japanese garden; there’s a wooden garden bridge over a fish pond topped with lily pads as well as a moving water wheel with the soothing whoosh of water amid bamboo. Partake of your creative lunch or din- ner either alfresco in this lovely ambi- ence or choose the air-conditioned dining area where you will walk over a Zen garden created three feet below the glass-bottom floor. A square- shaped sushi bar offers 60 choices, while the dinner menu is filled with all manner of delectable items from the Land of the Rising Sun. From noon till 6 p.m. on weekdays, enjoy a lunch box: a beautiful lacquered lunch box that might include tempura, fried baby squid, dumplings, or noodles accom- panied with a bowl of soup and fried rice. Japanese-born chef Taka’s dinner menu becomes available at 6 p.m. Myriad soups, salads, fried rice, noo- dles, beef, chicken, seafood, and fresh fish await the hungry palate. Try the tempura of shrimp, squid, fish, or veg- gies—or a mixture of all. Other items include baby squid filled with crab pâté and red chile pepper, as well as thick and thin slices of sashimi. There is a full bar, plus a wine cellar with a variety of international wines, plus Japanese beers and a selection of sake, including sparkling. No dinner is com- plete without a sweet ending: Try tem- pura ice cream or the Japanese version of flan. Plaza Nautica, Blvd. Marina, Cabo San Lucas, (624) 143-4038, www.daikoku.com.mx. Daily noon–11:30 p.m. MasterCard and Visa accepted. $$–$$$ S.A.B.
