- Justin Hurst added a new meal Dinner at Tha Sakai at ザ サカイ tha sakai
Tha Sakai, Kyoto. Counter-only space with a pretty hidden entrance, tucked behind their more casual Enca. Chef from a favorite of mine in Kobe, bb9, now has a new spot to refine his cuisine right in front of you. Excellent ingredients, cooked only with wood fire and smoke, just like Extebarri, where he worked previously. A wonderful addition to Kyoto.... More

- Justin Hurst added a new meal Dinner at 東麻布 天本 at Higashiazabu Amamoto
Finally made it in to see @masamichiamamoto thanks to a very kind invitation. Beautiful space, pristine ingredients, and some great wines as well, which I usually don’t drink with sushi. Timing was late spring, as you might guess from the firefly squid. Definitely looking forward to another visit.

- Justin Hurst added a new meal Dinner at Ichita at Ichita
A few highlights from my first visit to Ichita (いち太) in Tokyo. Great kaiseki, very friendly chef. Looking forward to another visit soon. Particularly liked ending with soba instead of rice.

- Justin Hurst added a new meal Dinner at 片折 at Kataori
Purity, focus, quality. Kataori was an exceptional meal. Worth the journey and the contortions required to get a seat. Kanazawa is a lovely city to explore - make sure you stay a while as well.

Nawaya, part 2
A few hours on a charming old train north from Kyoto, tucked away in a tiny town in Kyotango, is a wonderful restaurant. A small group of friends had the place to ourselves for the evening, and chef presented what can only be described as a feast. Incredibly fresh and tasty local ingredients, warm hospitality, in a beautiful space. Highly... More

- Justin Hurst added a new meal Dinner at 隼 Toshi at Toshi (隼)
Another excellent modern Chinese meal at @restaurant_toshi. This was my third time, and it’s been consistently excellent. Wine pairings are also some of the best in town, with real depth and quality for a fair price. Watching chef work the wok over a gigantic flame makes for a fun show as well. Highly recommended.
