Tucked away on a quiet corner in Motoazabu, the restaurant serves just 10 guests around a L-shaped wooden counter. Shunji San carefully balances tradition while carving his own path with innovation - we see inspiration from his travels in his dishes such as the ankimo with fugu skin plated in Singapore Lo Hei style. The meal started with the making of the shari, followed by an impressive parade of the day’s hokkigai and tsubugai. The tsumami featured highlights including the tsubugai and tuna cheek while the maki with the golden mountain of murasaki uni stole the show in the latter half of the omakase.
