in tokyo, japan (june’24)

working in the kaiseki industry before training under yoshitake san, murayama is one of the more interesting sushiyas which incorperate kaiseki as its tsumami before the nigiri segment.

with a range of fried, raw and even showcasing an owan, each element was done extremely well. particularly loved the katsuo of the day, the konowata and karasumi chawanmushi, as well as the fried ayu were also very nice. highlight for sure was his awabi, perfect texture but most importantly its kimo sauce was incredible.

the nigiri here follows yoshitake style very much, extremely similar in knife-work and preparations, similar to shikon in hong kong as well. like the tamagoyaki, and the double uni of murasaki on top and bafun below. the shari is definitely stronger in acidity which i prefer personally, balances well with the neta. everything was solid, and comfortable to eat but there wasn’t a piece that stood out. overall a really nice sushiya, taisho and team were also super friendly and speaks good english. very good price but crazy difficult to book with next rounds being one year later, which i can’t seem to justify.
