EDITORS’ PICKS, UPSTATE
From the family that enlightened us about true Japanese cuisine, Okura Japanese Restaurant remains classic. Yes, there is sushi and sashimi. Yes, there is teriyaki and tempura. That’s as you would expect. What you might not expect— age mono (chicken or pork) and a selection of fusion cuisine, such as Thai beef and chicken satay. 703 Ace Memorial Drive, Hockessin, 239-8486, okura.us
