Sushi Hare is hands down my favorite sushiya in Hong Kong. Nigiris here were consistently crafted in terms of temperature and size. Neta was of very good quality and the prep work was equally outstanding. You just have to try the black pepper anago which i have never seen such a combo elsewhere. The kitchen staff also deserved a lot of credit... More

Tomidokoro is one of the sushiyas that I would love to visit whenever I am in Tokyo. Customers are able to truly appreciate Taisho’s skills in terms of how to craft nigiris in a highly consistent manner and bring out the best from each type of neta.
Sato Taisho sources most of his neta from Nozomi,... More

Kurosaki has long been on my to-go list since it was located at Shibuya. The new location at Aoyama was classy and aesthetic as if a modern gallery.
