5. Soba
6. Nice French
7. Ramen
8. Nice Italian
9. Sushi
10. Chinese
11. Yakitori
12. Japanese breakfast
Getting back to my original list - which of these restaurants does anyone give a ^ or to in the Kaiseki or contemporary Japanese categories? Any additional ideas?

Esaki (Japanese Contemporary)
Ginza Okuda (Japanese)
Hishinuma (Japanese)
Ichirin (Japanese)
Kikunoi (Japanese)
Les Creations de Narisawa (French/Japanese? Contemporary)

Note that Narisawa has a special lunch offering in 2013:
