Misono

Misono on VFW Parkway serves Japanese and Korean food, so sushi rolls and Korean chicken wings can comfortably share a table. The wings come plain, with a sweet and spicy sauce, or with honey, soy and garlic. Pork and vegetable gyoza, scallion pancakes and shrimp tempura give you other ways to start a meal.

The sushi menu includes spicy tuna and salmon-avocado rolls, while the kitchen offers Korean barbecue dishes, katsu and noodles. This is useful territory for a group whose tastes split between raw fish and cooked food. Misono is at 669 VFW Parkway in Chestnut Hill, and takeout ordering is available through its merchant menu. Check the lunch and dinner schedule before making an afternoon visit, since service has a break on most days.
