The (R)estaurant (B)ar (L)ounge is a renowned fusion sushi restaurant in the Dongcheng district of Beijing. This two-storey restaurant includes a noodle bar and a sushi bar and offers a menu that changes periodically to reflect the seasonally available ingredients. The fresh ingredients are key to the high-quality and novel sashimi and sushi here in one of the best restaurants in Beijing. Creativity in both sight and taste abound in the sakura smoked duck, and Shangdong unagi nigiri, Nagasaki suckling pig in kumquat sauce maki, or Dalian scallop sashimi. The creativity extends into vegetarian dishes available on demand. The wine list is a unique collection of both new and old world wines, and sake. When a romantic date, leave the thinking to the crew and go with the degustation menu. The climax to the evening includes miso crème brûlée with orange marmalade, or the house-signature green tea cheesecake.
