A visit to the renowned Sushi Sho in Yotsuya.The flow of alternating appetizers and sushi keeps the experience enjoyable from start to finish.We began with umibudo (sea grapes), hairy crab with junsai, followed by kasugo (young sea bream), hebo-dai (a type of fish),then enjoyed sashimi of madai (sea bream), akami (lean tuna), and sawara (Spanish mackerel),each dish leaving a strong impression.The octopus sashimi, kohada (gizzard shad), and marinated isaki (grunt fish) were delicious,and the hiragai (flat clam) wrapped in nori with shichimi soy sauce had a wonderful aroma that I really liked.The kinmedai (golden eye snapper) marinated in kombu, deep-fried young sweetfish, horse mackerel,ankimo (monkfish liver) gunkan, steamed abalone,sumi-ika (squid), bafun uni (sea urchin), and kuruma ebi (sweet shrimp) were all incredibly satisfying!The dried mehikari (shiny fish) was also good.For extras, we had hokkigai (surf clam), nishin (herring), shako (mantis shrimp),kin-ki (red sea bream) grilled skin-side up, boiled hamaguri (hard clam), ankimo,and freshly grilled anago (conger eel).Among them, the standout was definitely the signature toro-taku ohagi (sweet rice ball with fatty tuna).Not only is it visually striking, but the harmony of flavors when you take a bite is remarkable.This is a must-try dish when visiting Sushi Sho.To finish, we enjoyed salt and pistachio ice cream,and refreshing mandarin and melon sorbet.After the rich flavors, it was a perfect way to cleanse the palate.Each dish was delicious, and the overall flow of the meal was satisfying.I definitely want to return to this restaurant.△––––––––––––––△【Dishes Recorded】umibudohairy crab with junsaikasugohebo-daimadai sashimiakamisawaraoctopus sashimikohadamarinated isakihiragai with shichimi soy sauce nori rolltoro akamikinmedai marinated in kombudeep-fried young sweetfishhorse mackerelankimo gunkansteamed abalonesumi-ikabafun unikuruma ebidried mehikari【Extras】hokkigainishinshakokin-ki grilled skin-side uptoro-taku signature ohagiboiled hamaguriankimofreshly grilled anago【Desserts】salt ice creampistachio ice creammandarin sorbetmelon sorbet【Restaurant Name】Sushi Sho【Business Hours】Mon, Wed, Fri11:30 AM - 1:30 PM6:00 PM - 10:30 PMTue, Thu, Sat6:00 PM - 10:30 PM【Closed】SundaysHolidays on Mondays, Golden Week, New Year’s holidays【Crowd Status】Reservation only; difficult to book【Order】Omakase courseExtras available【Address】1F Yorin-do Building, 1-11 Yotsuya, Shinjuku, Tokyo
