...restaurant, tel: (61-2) 9327 6561, are killed by the Japanese practice of ike jime (or driving a point through a fish's brain to kill it instantaneously, minimizing stress to the creature and so optimizing the flavor of its flesh). Staff also advise diners to eat "from the thin end" as the fish is still cooking when it arrives at your table. But chef Greg Doyle's dogmatic insistence on freshness and barely-there cooking pays divine dividends in such dishes as tuna belly with wasabi and sesame seeds, or butter-poached crayfish. Around $110 per head with wine...

As the album continues, however, the limited vocal range and thin instrumental palette leaves Editors sounding repetitive. Without the energy of “Munich,” dark and depressing songs like “Fall” become dangerously boring.
