It's been a while since I visited Kokura, and I can hear the sounds of festival drums practicing from various places around town. This restaurant is located on the second floor of an inconspicuous building in the heart of the city. Inside, there are only eight counter seats. It's a delightful sushi restaurant where conversations flow easily, making it easy to linger longer than planned. I saw the owner, the hostess, and three staff members, but there might be more in the back. The service is very pleasant. The sushi is delicious, and what impressed me the most was that even though it was my first visit, I felt like a regular. This place felt like a miracle to me. Thank you for a wonderful meal tonight!
