Fusion Japanese
An omakase counter in the middle of Oaxaca, where a chef fuses Japanese technique with local ingredients in ways that manage to feel neither forced nor like a gimmick. Kampachi arrives with nixtamalized papaya; an eel handroll gets a smoky-sweet agave pulp dressing. The menu runs light, but the combinations stick with you. Fellow travelers tend to fill the seats, since locals haven't quite caught on yet, which means walk-in odds are better than they should be.
