New review on Sushi Amamoto, one of hardest to reserve Sushiyas in Japan, up on my blog 🔼 Link in profile 🔼
After my 2019 meal, I was quite dismissive. Even after dining there, I thought it was a foodie circle jerk. That the food was good but the reason for Amamoto’s popularity was more to be seen to be eating there.
What I saw this time in 2022 was a control freak, A perfectionist. A shokunin.
Whether it’s the fact that he chooses to do all the prep himself without an assistant, or the minor adjustments he makes according to the fish condition he has on the day, or his vastly improved nigiri and shari. These are the things that I missed last time.
