How do you describe the work of Suguru Yamamoto? Like Scott Pilgrim (the comics, not the movie), only 15 years younger, abstract, serious not jokey, and in Japan? OK, so it's NOT AT ALL like Scott Pilgrim. Anyway, I love this stuff.
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: Late shows, I am incapable of sending you anywhere other than Sakagura,* the no-holds-barred izakaya hidden off a Midtown office lobby. For the matinée, maybe slipped-but-none-gone Turkish Sip-Sak?
