Tokyo "Sushi Saitou"----------------------------------------Price: JPY 50,000 - 60,000Tabelog: 4.59, Tabelog Award GOLDAddress: 1F Ark Hills South Tower, 1-4-5 Roppongi, Minato-ku, TokyoTaste: ☆☆☆☆ 4.5Service: ☆☆☆☆ 4.7Cost Performance: ☆☆☆ 3.7(out of 5)----------------------------------------Sushi Saitou, a representative sushi restaurant of Japan, has won the Tabelog Award GOLD for about 10 years, making it an exceptional establishment.It’s just a 1-minute walk from Roppongi Itchome Station.Upon entering, you are greeted by a hinoki wood counter and the apprentices, showcasing top-notch hospitality.This time, I experienced a course prepared by the apprentices.The sushi rice is made from large grains, seasoned with natural salt and red vinegar, resulting in a slightly warm, soft texture with a balanced acidity.Both the appetizers and sushi were incredibly delicious. While I thoroughly enjoyed it, I would love to try the sushi prepared by the master chef as well.The dishes I had in June included:(Appetizers)- Hon-Ara (Grouper)- Tender Octopus- Steamed Abalone- Braised Toro (Fatty Tuna)- Grilled Nodoguro (Blackthroat Sea Perch)- Miso Soup- Tamago (Egg)(Sushi)- Flatfish- Squid- Kohada (Gizzard Shad)- Marinated Red Tuna- Chutoro (Medium Fatty Tuna)- White Shrimp- Otoro (Fatty Tuna)- Torigai (Surf Clam)- Horse Mackerel- Sweet Shrimp- Sea Urchin- Anago (Sea Eel)- Tekka Maki (Tuna Roll)(Extras)- Gourd Roll- Toro-Taku (Fatty Tuna and Pickled Radish)If you think it’s a good restaurant, don’t forget to save it! ☝️For more posts, check here: @nozawayuuta#TokyoGourmet#TokyoSushi#RoppongiGourmet#SushiSaitou#RoppongiSushi
