A dedication to detail that lifts sushi into the realms of the truly sublime - in a way that defies belief. So few constituent parts, but all absolutely perfect. And without any of the meticulous attention to detail getting in the way of the perfect culinary experience; of becoming unneccesary or intrusive frippery. The provinance of the salt? Yes, but only if you ask. The beer Mr Yasuda would recommend - again, if you’d like to know.
This attention to detail could, in the wrong hands, sound a little wanky (or writing about it might) - but it’s just pride in serving the very best.
The rice, just warm. The addition of soy and wasabi just so. Size and shape, perfect. Everything - perfect.
‘Some sushi places places think that by charging a lot of money they are making good sushi. Wrong’ - Mr Yasuda.
The prices at the counter aren’t cheap. But they are good value.
Not a sushi pretender. A sushi master.
