New Restaurant Downtown

There's a new restaurant in downtown Palm Springs.

It's Okura, A new Okura Japanese grill and sushi bar joins the existing one that's in La Quinta. It's right next to Starbucks, so after dinner you'll be able to get a good cup of Java. Not a bad idea since Japanese cuisine usually doesn't include after dinner expresso.

The fires are lit in the pits in the center of the tables on the outside patio of the restaurant (right next to Starbuck's patio).

The Desert Sun reports that the owner is planning to have a variety of classic old movies shown. My guess is that they'll be shown on a large video screen.

Okura is at 105 S. Palm Canyon, at Palm Canyon and Tahquitz in Palm Springs.

Phone is 327-1333.
