This street stall dishes out steaming hot
tako-yaki
(grilled octopus dumplings),
topped with everything from kimchi to Worcestershire sauce. It's located, unfortu-
nately, across from the Meguro Parasitological Museum; nonetheless, Ganko Dako
draws them in - check out the celebrity signings on the wall.

Right outside Daikanyama Station, with a terrace and picture windows, Sign is
perfectly poised for prime people watching. Despite the hip decor, the menu is full
of classic Japanese comfort foods such as
omu raisu
(rice topped with a soupy om-
elette and demi-glace sauce).
