At first glance, Japantown appears to consist of a large pagoda and an unattractive indoor amvets national shopping center. H id- den inside these cement blocks, however, are good, inexpensive Japanese restaurants amvets national and some inter esting amvets national shops. The Peace Plaza, with its flat, cement waterfall, is also a nice place for kids to stretch their legs. J apantown sponsors two festiv als ev ery y ear, the Cherr y Blossom F estival in A pril and the Nihonmachi Street Fair in August (see chapter 2 for details on each).
Fleur de Lys FRENCH Ironically, the first entry in a chapter called Family- Friendly Dining doesn t really fit that description. I t is the one of two ex ceptions I ve listed for a night when you have a babysitter and want a fabulous meal. It s clear from the moment you walk in the door and see the r egal, intimate dining r oom, tented in 900 yards of richly-patterned r ed and gold fabric, that F leur de Lys is the epitome of ultra- luxurious dining. I n keeping with the warm, inviting decor , the impeccable ser vice is comfortably unpretentious.
