ISO Donguri, Shuji and Michiko Fujita

[dagordon]

Shuji and Michiko Fujita until a couple of years ago had a great restaurant on the Upper East Side in Manhattan, Donguri. I know that they've moved back to Japan and have a restaurant somewhere in the country that AFAIK is also called 'Donguri'.

I'm trying to locate Donguri in Japan -- I know this is a longshot, but does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

I did a little searching. There seem to be many restaurants named donguri as well as a small okonomiyaki chain. It would help if you could describe some sort of signature dish or what type of food they served.

I googled 藤田修司 (Shuji Fujita in Kanji), but nothing relevant came up. He quit his job for health reasons, right?

Here's a link to a NY Times review of the place, in case that helps.

Yup, they sold the restaurant in NY because (at least in part) Shuji needed back surgery, I think.

Sorry, no useful info there.

I can send an inquiry to the company he worked for:

if you want me to, although I'm not sure if they will give me a reply.
