Frommer's Review

The Hong Kong branch of a well-known group of restaurants in Japan, Unkai might well be the best Japanese restaurant in town. With chefs from Osaka (known for its food), it caters to discerning Japanese, who make up a large proportion of the Sheraton's guests, with a variety of authentic dishes. True to Japanese form, the elegance of the restaurant is subtly understated, an aesthetic that is also carried into the food presentation. Foremost, of course, are the kaiseki courses, artfully arranged dishes that change according to the season. There's also tempura (meat and vegetables coated in batter and then deep-fried), teppanyaki (grilled foods), and sushi counters. Since ordering a la carte can be expensive and bewildering due to the many choices, order a fixed-price meal (called a "course" on the menu) or come for lunch, when you have a choice of several fixed-price meals, including sushi, tempura, and teppanyaki courses and an obento lunch box. The obento is especially charming, a small lacquered chest with dishes of food in each of the drawers.
