Other highlights included a terrific Maguro and Murosaki uni sashimi combination,... More

Other highlights included a terrific Maguro and Murosaki uni sashimi combination, the richness of the fish , foiled the brine of the uni .
The Wagyu tenderloin was particularly clean in flavour and paired well with fig and miso . Less

A very good dinner at this former Michelin 3-star restaurant. Seasonal specialties such as the female snow crab (with ovaries and eggs) were fantastic.

Great dinner at the always-excellent Kojyu, with @lpadilla777 for her first ever visit to Japan. Excellent early season matsutake was definitely my favorite.
