Dining room at Silk Asian Steak & Seafood, Atlanta, GAGlass, steel, pin-point lighting and sleek finishes craft a singular environment for this contemporary Japanese restaurant. Consulting with Jim Lock of Wild Ginger fame, the longtime Atlanta restaurateurs Raymond and Anna Hsu developed a menu that takes the best of Japanese cooking and brings to it other Asian flavors and American tastes as well. There are many ways to dine at Silk: enjoy a sushi snack at the bar with a drink; assemble a sequence of tiny dishes, such as duck-filled dumplings; or enjoy a full-fledged dining experience. Executive chef Kochi Chiba is a master of the kaiseki dining tradition; order his omakase dinner to taste a variety of flavors. These special experiences must be ordered a week in advance for no more than 20 persons. Topnotch sushi---especially the white tuna, mackerel and sea urchin---is gloriously presented. First-rate rolls (particularly the soft-shell crab-stuffed spider rolls) and bento boxes are stars at lunch. The dinner standouts are any of the fresh fish dishes and the Kobe steaks, although the veal chop absolutely warrants consideration. The wine list is adventurous, and presents many wines not readily acquired in other venues. Start with a Dr. Pauly-Bergweiler sekt for a refreshing change of pace and a good match with sushi.
