Tsushima (對馬) Tokyo

對馬
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One of my favourite Chinese restaurants in Tokyo amongst a sea of mediocrity. Solid, bold flavours that contrasts against the chef's calm demeanour, and whilst this sits on the more modest Japanese-style Chinese cuisine, there are few other places that reach this level in Tokyo. Awesome wok hei for the dishes that matter.

in tokyo, japan (june’24)

trained under furuta after being in pastries, tsushima is another one of the most recognisable chukas in tokyo, with waitlists over 2-3 years. was hesitant in trying with the range in feedback i received but overall i really enjoyed this meal despite some hits and misses.

began with an asparagus with a scallion oil, beef braesola and caviar, a unqiue combination and which with the ‘signature’ caviar bifun, didn’t really understand the significance of the caviar apart from justifying the price of the course. really loved the ‘nodoguro don’ with sakura ebi and a sweet and sour sauce which hit the spot in flavours. the oolong tea cooked octopus, fukahire and tantan men were also enjoyable, in which the base chicken broth was very proper, adequately rich with hints of junan ham. didn’t understand the chasiu as there was no char and grill on the lean pork, chahan flavour was good but the rice itself was too wet to be fried.

the innovative dessert parfait of miyazaki mango and yogurt sorbet was also very very good. thank you for the invitation, so far still enjoy testing out different chukas in japan.
