Neo Tokyo 9-10-98 Alexander Lee

I have added East and revised Kameda's review a little, though I still have to put up a scan of their business card.  The next few eateries I'm going to add in Cuisine de Saigon, Acme Bar & Grill, adn Taste of Tokyo.  I'm also going to put in a little bit on Katz' Deli and Standard Notions on Ludlow street.

While everyone else calls the area Little Tokyo a la Little Italy, being a fervent Akira fan, I decided to take it upon myself to refer to it as Neo-Tokyo.

Neo-Tokyo is an area in lower Manhattan without well defined boundaries.  Nestled within the East Village, I feel that it is centered around Stuyvesant street between second and third avenue.   Here there are many Japanese stores and businesses that cater to the Japanese population there, most notably Sunrise Market.
