Moto-i

Take a group of friends out for drinks and share around the little dishes at Moto-i, the new Uptown bar and restaurant from the brains, and brewer, of the Herkimer. The restaurant offers a full sake experience, and does a good job of educating costumers on how the sake is made—and Moto-i should know, since it's the first sake brewery outside of Japan.

We took a look at several dishes on the Moto-i menu that could mix and match to make a great meal for a group of people: pork dumplings, the rangoon, the ribs, the rotisseria hen, the coconut green curry and Yakiudon noodle bowl. We also took in some dessert, the milk jelly and the mochi, and a side of the roasted peanuts and Thai beef jerky.
