Ruby is a friendly
place that attracts
a lively crowd of
drinkers and eaters.
It's in a long and
narrow basement
space, clean and
brightly lit, with
video monitors for
karaoke at each end.
(The shop card
boasts they have
karaoke in Burmese,
Japanese, English,
Chinese and Korean!)


They have a complete
Japanese-language
menu, listing some
Malaysian-style
dishes like satay in
addition to a full
range of Burmese
food. Highly recom-
mended is the Tofu-
joh (Y550), a Bur-
mese style tofu made
from yellow lentils
and spice, and deep
fried in small
squares. Served with
a thick, sweet-hot-
savory dipping
sauce, it has a
crunchy exterior and
an interior texture
like the corn masa
in a Mexican tamale,
but with a flavor
closer to Indian
papad.

The A-Soh-Na-Hin
(Y780) consists of
long-simmered chunks
of stringy beef in a
richly flavored
sauce similar to a
Northern Indian
curry, garnished
with a large sprig
of spearmint leaves.
Both rice and para-
tha (a thin bread)
are also on the
menu. Ruby can get
very crowded on
weekends, so call in
advance.
