Varied Asian Menu
Yen is an interesting place. It is a Chinese, Thai and Japanese all mixed in to one.
Down-stairs are several teppanyaki "tables". For those that don't know teppanyaki is a fun way to eat. You sit around a hot place with your friends and the chef prepares your food in front of you, usually showing of his culunary skills by juggling omelette or something similar. The menu here is quite limited in that you have to choose from a selection of meats and then it is a set meal, but it is excellent food and entertainment all rolled in to one.
Up-stairs is a more traditional restaurant. It is quite a big room, and gets pretty busy at the weekend, but it's a lovely place nonetheless. The staff make you feel very welcome and it feels very homely, even given the size of the room. The menu in the main restaurant allows you to pick from a range of Chinese, Thai or Japanese dishes, all of which are excellent.
