On this day, I decided to have sushi and headed south to a spot just a bit past the famous okonomiyaki restaurants in the Sennichimae shopping street toward the Saito Bridge shopping street. The interior of the restaurant has a row of counter seats, which feels a bit cramped. The customers varied from inbound tourists to solo diners and those visiting for sightseeing. It's no surprise that this place has good cost performance and is easy to visit! I’m also one of those diners, after all!
★ Draft Beer ¥500
★ Appetizer (Macaroni Salad) - I forgot the price...
★ Karasumi Tomato ¥380
I ordered this as it seemed like a great side dish. The bright red tomato slices were generously sprinkled with karasumi powder, looking delicious! Once I tried it, the karasumi really enhanced the tomato's flavor—so tasty! The tomato was nicely chilled too, which was a pleasant surprise!
★ Fried Tuna ¥580
I had heard that they take pride in their tuna, so I ordered the fried tuna! Drizzling some lemon on top made it incredibly delicious! I found myself thinking that fried tuna might just be perfect!
Now that I've enjoyed a few dishes, it's time for the sushi!
★ Hon-Tuna Sampler ¥880
Featuring "Akami," "Chutoro," and "Otoro," the three tuna brothers are presented boldly! I was surprised at the price for such quality hon-tuna. I had the "Akami" and "Otoro." The "Akami" was light yet flavorful, while the "Otoro" melted in my mouth—such a delightful experience!
★ White Fish Sampler ¥500
With "Tai," "Hirame," and "Hamachi Belly," I couldn't believe it was only 500 yen! I ordered "Tai" and "Hamachi Belly," and they were both incredibly delicious! The tai had a fantastic texture, and the hamachi belly was firm and rich in flavor!
★ Aburi Sampler ¥500
With "Tai," "Salmon," and "Shime Saba," the grilled and lightly salted flavors were perfectly balanced. I enjoyed the classic "Salmon," and it was exquisite!
★ Grilled Scallop (1 piece) ¥250
Having tasted the delicious grilled items, I opted for my favorite scallop! A lightly grilled, thick scallop brought out its natural sweetness, and it was outstanding!
★ Marinated Tuna ¥110 (probably...)
I love marinated dishes! The tuna looked mouthwatering, and one bite... it was delicious! The soft tuna had the perfect marination.
★ Tsun Tsun Maki ¥480
Wondering what "Tsun Tsun Maki" was, I guessed it might be "Tears Maki." When I asked, it turned out to be a roll with wasabi and cucumber! I debated between that and "Tekka Maki" but went with "Tsun Tsun Maki." The flavor was milder than I expected, making it a perfect end to my meal!
My friend ordered "Geso" as nigiri and seemed to really enjoy it, priced at just 50 yen! Yes, I’ll repeat that: "Geso" for 50 yen! It’s unbelievably cheap!
There are so many other dishes I want to try here, so I definitely need to come back! The service was attentive, and all the staff were friendly. With such reasonable prices, it’s no wonder this place is popular! I’ll be returning soon!
