Trust Les Amis Group to give the shabby izakaya concept the chic treatment. Their new Jinzakaya over at Farrer Park is wonderfully Instagrammable, kind of streets-of-LA meets Kill Bill, and also serves a varied menu of small plates, skewers, yakimono mains, salads, ramen and udon.

It also features a decent list of sakes, shochu and beers on tap, but the highlight has to be the tapas-style bites and set lunches with yummy choices like the hiyashi chuka ramen ($12.80), with crab meat, salmon roe, shredded chicken and cold noodles; MBS 8 Wagyu namban ($15), spring onion wrapped with sliced Wagyu beef and kitsune natto ($3.50), fried tofu stuffed with fermented beans.
