Junko (pronounced "Joon-ko") offers a convenient sushi spot in the downtown skywalk. Enclosed by glass and decorated with clean lines, it looks like an oasis from the downtown bustle. The restaurant is split in two parts. One is for ordering and boasts the restaurant's vast selection of organic teas lined up in jars. This is connected by a corridor leading to a spacious dining area. The Japanese decor features swords on wall shelves, simple laminate wood floors, paper lanterns and deep peach-colored walls.
