Description

The kitchen builds its foundation on imported Japanese ingredients, pairing a blend of three Koshihikari rice varieties with a seasoned mix of sugar, salt, and two types of red Asaku vinegar. The resulting sushi is served without soy sauce, pre-seasoned by the chefs so you can eat it directly with your hands. It is a traditional, no-fusion style where the focus stays on the fish. While some diners suggest bypassing the appetizers to stick to the simple omakase menu, the room itself remains a relaxed space free of loud music, keeping the focus on the food and conversation.
