Kohaku Japanese
$$$$
Arguably Yangon’s, if not Myanmar’s, finest Japanese restaurant, Kohaku is a favorite with affluent Burmese, business travelers, and tourists looking for a change from local food, and is therefore full most nights, so call ahead. Everything’s fresh, especially the sushi (the fish is flown in daily), and the hamachi nigiri sushi is sublime. Best values are the generous all-you-can-eat buffet menus: the Japanese À La Carte Buffet (US$38; Monday to Thursday) and Kohaku Deluxe Buffet (US$42; Friday to Sunday).
