Impressively at just 32 years of age Chef Maiewa runs a standout sushi shop in Tokyo . @sushiakira1104 mixes tradition with creative unexpected touches , including influences from Chinese cuisine .

Highlight pieces were the firm texture of the awabi abductor muscle , Katsuo both sashimi and nigiri were outstanding , ankimo with sudaichi was deliciously sweet.

For nigiri , both Mahata and Issaki were welcome surprises , and loved the aka uni with salt and the Aburi Nodogoro .

Been a while since my last visit to Sushi Akira すし良月, a lovely meal by the talented young chef. Well portioned, seasoned and constructed nigiri, the comparison between male and female uni was quite interesting. •

Sushi Akira is currently helmed by a young chef, Maeiwa San, who was born in 1991 in Wakayama. Before running his own sushiya, he spent 7 years at Sushi Sho Masa and some time at the globally renowned Chinese restaurant in Tokyo, Sazenka. Needless to say, you will see some influence from Sho style an Sazenka in Maeiwa San’s food. He is also capable of making flavorsome dashi, which is quite rare in sushiya in general. ⁣
⁣
Out of respect of his Kansai root, Maeiwa San also serves steamed sushi and bouzushi in his regular omakase menu. I was particularly impressed by his sake selection and I also love the fact that they proactively provided wine glasses for diners to savor the aroma of sake. ⁣
⁣
I revisited Sushi Akira in a month and 80% of the tsumami was completely different, demonstrating Chef Maeiwa’s creativity. His grilled tsumami such as the botan ebi and katsuo are good companies with the carefully selected nihonshu. As for the nigiri session, all of us were astounded by the sweetness and fattiness of katsuo toro. The maguro sourced from Yunoka was so balanced in terms of meatiness and fattiness. Let us not forget the unique steamed sushi which brought out the best from kobako-gani in terms of sweetness and aroma. ⁣
⁣
Sushi Akira is very different from other renowned sushiyas in Tokyo. All in all, it is a well-deserved Tabelog Silver sushiya that I would love to show my friends whenever I visit Tokyo.⁣
