I am very familiar with the good cheap asian places in town but not with the more highendish ones...which are the best fine dining asian places in town?

I recently had lunch at Chinatown Brasserie on Lafayette Street and really enjoyed it. The room is beautiful and the staff couldn't have been nicer.

Fusion Asian - Buddakan
Fusion Japanese - Morimoto (only for the ultimate omakase)
Quasi-authentic Chinese - Chinatown Brasserie
Traditional Japanese (sushi and kaiseki) - Masa, Sugiyama, 15 East (well, semi-traditional)
Indian - Devi (wait till they re-open), Tamarind
Not sure about Korea.
Kittchitai is supposed to be fine-dining Thai, but I wasn't impressed with the food.

I've heard great things about Rosanjin for Japanese. For Chinese, I like Our Place. Mr. K's and Shun Lee have both been disappointments.

I always enjoy our meals at Chin Chin - Chinese. Great Peking Duck.

I agree with Chin-Chin. Have the dumpling appetizer, it is delicious and light.
