Japanese and Chinese Fusion at Omoto Garden

Omoto Garden brings a bit of international flair to Abington with its spread of Japanese and Chinese fusion cuisine.

They combine shrimp and scallops in a spicy brown sauce to create an entree dubbed the Imperial Couple, and they deep-fry slices of tender steak to create a crispy beef dish. On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings, Omoto surrounds these feasts with a karaoke chorus, as patrons belt out popular songs and sign autographs for their invisible fans.
