EAST MEMPHIS. You won't mind waiting in line for this pulled pork shoulder barbecue. Whether you choose the ribs or the pork platter, you're sure to get a tasty meal. Reservations are not accepted, so go early to avoid the crowd.

EAST MEMPHIS. Lively and noisy might not be typical descriptions of most Japanese restaurants, but the words fit Sekisui. A little creek runs down the middle of the dining room, and fountains with running water provide a peaceful and melodic backdrop of sound. Sushi is the house specialty, and it is served in every way imaginable. Tender, succulent portions of fish combine with seaweed, rice and other fresh ingredients to form beautiful pieces of sushi that come served with a variety of dipping sauces. Other traditional Japanese entrees are served with rice, soup and salad. Full bar.
