New Restaurants on the Radar: Inakaya, Trigo Kitchen, Souen

Inakaya: As if print journalism's implosion wasn't stressful enough for Times employees, they can now get yelled at during their lunch hour, at this new "theatrical" Japanese Robatayaki restaurant in the ground floor of their headquarters.
