tokyo tohoku trip - day 12.
starting the day at tsukiji outer market 築地場外市場, even though the fish market has moved to toyosu, this area remains very popular for fresh seafood and lots of other street food. we came here on a wednesday so a lot of stores are closed, it also means there should be less people, some stores are still super crowded though.
we walked around the market and tried a few street food, fresh sashimi from 築地 斉藤水産, the seafood variety here is plenty, you can ask them what is good for the day as well, everything looks super yummy. all the fish, prawn and sea urchin we ate was really good, very tasty and enjoyable. followed by grilled scallops from 築地うなぎ食堂, which also has grilled eel and other shellfish, another popular option among the crowd. last but not least, tamagoyaki from 築地 山長 is definitely a must-eat, especially for egg lovers like myself, it’s just so fluffy and i like to eat this while it’s freshly cooked.
for lunch, my friend and i went to shutoku 2nd store at tsukiji 秀徳2号店 for the omakase meal, we were served tamagoyaki, 10 pieces of sushi made from various local freshly caught fish, a handroll and miso soup. the chef prepared all the fishes and shell food first before starting to make the sushi. it’s a very enjoyable process to watch as the chef do wonders right in front of you. each fish is very fresh, has slight different texture and taste, and is complimented by various condiments which enhance the flavor. the meal was very satisfying and enjoyable, this was our second visit already.
we grab coffee after the meal at a rustic coffee store - yonemoto coffee 米本珈琲 本店, this store has so many different kind of coffee beans, and the coffee jelly i got is so yummy too. definitely a good place to visit for a great cuppa. after the coffee break, i head to shibuya on my own to continue my exploration, as shibuya has changed a lot recently.
i first did some stationery and souvenir shopping at loft, this is my favorite store to go to as it just has so many things to see and buy, and always something new to discover. they also offer duty free shopping which is very convenient too. after that, i went to shibuya scramble square, a new shopping mall that is super popular right now, to visit shibuya sky, the latest and hottest rooftop observation deck at the moment. i made reservation beforehand, so its very easy to get in with the QR code provided. they have lockers for visitors to store your things which is not allowed on the deck.
the deck is very spacious and windy, and there’s lots of tourists around, there’s also photography service which you can queue up for, otherwise you are free to roam around and take as many photos as you like, and stay as long as you wish to. as the sun goes down, the weather turns cold really quick though, but the sunset was very beautiful to watch. there’s some seating area and hammock and a helipad too. with a rooftop bar at one side which opens at night. it is definitely enjoyable to visit if you like the city view a lot and just wanna feel cool breeze.
when the sky starts to turn dark, i decided to leave and went down the building, and by chance, i found tokyu hands ハンズ on the 10th floor, and did more shopping, this is also one of my favorite place to shop for japanese stationery and home and living items. and this new store at shibuya scramble square is well organized and easy to look around too.
my last stop before heading back home is visiting the mega donki Megaドン・キホーテ渋谷本店 to purchase some souvenirs for friends and family, as this stores is so big, they have anything and everything that you wanna buy at a rather competitive price. i bought quite a few japanese snacks here, the options are endless and it’s also very reasonably priced. only downside is the paying process is long and painful as there’s only limited staff working at the counters for duty free checkout.
for dinner, my friend has prepared a feast at home for the both of us, she bought so many fresh ingredients and cooked a delicious and heartwarming meal. there’s grilled fish, pumpkin, miso soup, fresh vegetables and more. everything is really yummy, and we had a great meal and it’s so just relaxing to be able to have a homecooked meal. our meal ends with the egg pudding i got from shimokitazawa a day before, which is so creamy and the egg taste is really fragrant and rich and not really sweet at all.
to be continued...

Day 7: final full day in Japan.
Today I had considered going for a run, but it was just too hot. I think the weather is much hotter now than when I first got here. I slept in instead, which guess is not bad, I did run three times in the heat and also swam yesterday.
I went to the tsukiji outer market today. I think I’ve gone here each time I’ve been in Japan, so today was the 4th tine. I only had two goals, and since the market closes up after 2, I had to hurry. First I bought myself a nice sushi knife. The first one the shop showed me was 500 bucks! I settled on the cheapest one, at only 200. I figure I should get it since I rarely buy anything fancy on my trips as a memento. Mostly I just take photos and sometimes I make these blogs for memories. Since I am flying to China tomorrow I didn’t want to bring the knife with me, so I just mailed it from the shop. After that I wanted to grab some food.
I went to a good sushi place that I went to previously with my girlfriend last time we were here. I had the omakase 11 piece meal, and ordered 4 other items. Their sushi is so good, I guess it’s because the fish is so fresh and comes from the market next-door. But I don’t really understand why it’s so much better. The meat also didn’t seem like it was very cold, even though it was kept in a little fridge on the bar counter for they served it much better. The meat also didn’t seem like it was very cold, even though it was kept in a little fridge on the bar counter before they served it.
After having dinner, I decided to walk around the rest of the market and see what else was still open. I got myself some Matcha soft serve, and a cone, and then went over and had a mochi with strawberry. I was completely stuffed after that.
After that I decided I had had enough of the crazy hot weather and went back to my hotel room where it was nice and air-conditioned.
I started to pack up all of my stuff and then realized that I had an 8 AM flight and not noon. So that means I gotta wake up super early and then figure out if I should take the train or an Uber.
It’s been a lot of fun spending time here and having new experiences. I could definitely do this again.

Tokyo
I woke up early and moved to fish market, Tsukiji. At 7am it was late for tuna selling but early enought o find sushi place. I paid 8630 JPY for omakase with soup and beer. Now I moved to Sumo stable Arashio-beya to see fighters practice. This one was free, but crowded in front of window. Met some serbians there. In between it was enough time to visit two tepmles, before moving with bus to…

Linda and I are continuing to eat our way though Tokyo. We started off the day at Team Labs, an immersive art experience that provides extremely Instagrammable photographs. Then we went to Daiwa Sushi next to the new Tsukiji Fish Market (note to self, take the subway to U14, use the walkway to the stairway to the restaurant level). Reader, I have said this before and I will say it again, if you like sushi, then coming to Tokyo for omakase will change your life. Truly, there is nothing else like it in the world.
Next we went to Shibuya to see the famous crossing and went to look for another 3D billboard. This one was of a Inu dog who comes out to tell you the time.
Finally we met up with a former Harper mom, Hiroko Mathis, and had high tea at the Okura Hotel. Not only was it delicious, it came with an incredible view of this beautiful city.

Tsukiji Sushi Omakase
Tumblr media
I made a reservation at and went to a sushi restaurant in Tsukiji that is reputed to be super-cosy. I had a plan to go to there, Tsukiji Sushi Omakase in Tsukiji.
築地の超コスパが高いと評判のお寿司屋さんに予約を入れて行ってきました。築地にある「築地すしOmakase」は、たしかTwitterのグルメ系の方が紹介されて知った、とかだったかな?1月頭から予約を入れていたので、超ワクワクの訪問です。
軽い雨の中、築地駅からテクテク。 築地本願寺は派手ですなあ。
Tumblr media
こちらが本日のお店「築地すしOmakase」さん。想像していたよりこじんまりした一軒家タイプ。想像していたより、ちょっと観光で行くお店感がある建物だったw
Tumblr media
いただきます!
本日注文したのは、8800円の「愛」コース。握り12種+つまみ10種のコースです。
まずはあったかいものからスタート。こちらは「しじみとムール貝のロワイヤル」。
Tumblr media
ロワイヤルっていうのは、いわゆる洋風の茶碗蒸し。かなりしっかりしたムール貝とバターの濃厚な旨味で、たしかにザ・洋風!っていう感じでした。
最初のお寿司は手巻きの「とろがっこ 山わさびがけ」。 マグロユッケといぶりがっこの手巻き鮨です。
Tumblr media
個人的にはめちゃめちゃお腹空いてるタイミングなので、濃厚なものが出てくるのはとっても嬉しいです。
Tumblr media
美味し〜!
お店の紹介では、「お酒を入れる前に少しご飯を入れましょう」とのこと。その方針、最高。最初にビールを頼んだのですが、たしかに空きっ腹だと酔いやすくなっちゃうもんね。
つまみとお寿司が交互に出てくるスタイルなので、お次はお刺身。
Tumblr media
チャイロマルハタ、というハタ科の白身で、なんと19日熟成だそうです。 ねっとりした歯応えと、白身だけどしっかりとした旨味。
あとからサイトで拝見したのですが、こちらのお店の熟成は「津本式究極の血抜き熟成魚」というスタイルだそうです。津本式...究極の血抜き...!すごそうな手法です。
お次も熟成もの、「12日熟成のメジナ」です。
Tumblr media
さっきのチャイロマルハタと一緒で、白身だけどかなりねっとりしっかりしたネタ。熟成されているので、少し水分が抜けて旨味が凝縮している感あります。
交互って言いつつ、お寿司が連続することも。 お次は、熟成サメガレイ。上に乗っているのはエンガワの炙り。
Tumblr media
ああ〜!このエンガワの炙りはめちゃめちゃ脂がしっかりしていて美味しかった〜!
ここで、牡蠣とほうれん草の摺流し。
Tumblr media
これ、色はかなりほうれん草で、最初は青っぽいクリームスープ的な感じかな?と思ったのですが、口に入れた瞬��に、もうトロットロにされた牡蠣の旨味がブワッと広がってめちゃめちゃ最高... 一滴たりとも残したくない、スプーンで側面の液体をこそげ回したいくらい美味しかったです。
最初の乾杯にはビールを頂いたのですが、順に日本酒に切り替えていきます。 これは...なんだったかな...
Tumblr media
日高見あたりだったかな...オンメニューの日本酒でした。 オンメニューのもの以外にも、季節のかなりいろんな銘柄があるので、あとで拝見させていただくことに。
お次は、煮鮑と肝ソース。
Tumblr media
美しい、厚切り波切りの鮑と、この うまみしかない 緑の肝ソース...
Tumblr media
美しすぎる。映えすぎる。
鮑を食べ終わったあとは、
Tumblr media
ちいさいシャリを入れてもらって、肝ソースをできるだけたくさん絡めてリゾット風に。ああ〜!さいこう〜!この肝の旨味、さらに残ったほんの僅かすら、べろんべろん舐めたい衝動に駆られるくらいにおいしい〜!
お次は小肌。
Tumblr media
結構ネタ大きめ。オイチー 小肌とシャリの間には、大葉とガリが挟んであって、味わいにアクセントがあっておいしいです。(ちょっとだけ小肌の内側がパサついていた気がするけど)
お次は太刀魚なんですが、低温調理ですこし熱が入っているもの。
Tumblr media
右端がピンと上がっているところがかわいいw 上に載っているソースは赤酢です。
低温調理なので、シャキシャキの魚感ではなく、柔らかくて脂がすこし染み出した旨味が楽しめます。コレモオイチー
ここでおつまみ。
Tumblr media
上は穴子の西京焼、左は赤かぶ、右はまじゃこ味噌。 実はこの右下のまじゃこ味噌が曲者で、味噌の中にふんわりと魚の甘味があって、ーー日本酒に...合う...!!!
Tumblr media
どれもおいしいのですが、じゃこ味噌の減り方が一番はやいw もちろん穴子の西京焼きもおいしいし、どしどし日本酒が進みます。あっという間になくなったので、おかわりさせていただきます。
Tumblr media
これは、なんだったかな、まんさくの花だったかな。おいしいやーつ。
ここで、お次はマグロです。
Tumblr media
マグロはどこのお店で撮ってもビジュ最高。キラキラしてる!!
Tumblr media
美しい。
もちろん綺麗にサシも入っていて、切り目からホロホロトロトロと溶けていくまぐろ。最高です。やっぱり強いですね。
おつまみも少しずついろいろ出してくださるので、日本酒が進む! こちらは、大根の千枚漬け、甘エビと鯛の酒盗巻き。
Tumblr media
甘エビのとろっとしたうまみ、千枚漬けのさっぱり感。中身を箸でほじくって食べたい欲に駆られるレベルw
さらに登場したのは、QRコード付きの最中。
Tumblr media
こちらはお店の名物の最中で、中にあん肝とスイカの奈良漬、金柑ときゅうりの白和えが入っています。
Tumblr media
後ろからと、前から。綺麗だね〜!
Tumblr media
美しい...!
Tumblr media
中のあん肝をほじくりながら、日本酒を飲みます。おいしい...! その前に出てきた千枚漬け巻きとも合わせて、本当に日本酒が進みます。
Tumblr media
お次は、塩麹で締めた鯖の”瞬間燻製”!ガラスの蓋の中の鯖が、スモークで満たされています。「5分待ってから開けてくださいね」ということで、日本酒とつまみをちびちびいただきながら待ちます。
Tumblr media
/ぱかー\ ぱかーからのズームw
Tumblr media
こちらは私の鯖。
Tumblr media
しっとりした鯖に、綺麗なスモークの香りがついてておいしい♡ 5分待ってくださいね、ということだったので、開けた瞬間のスモークはあんまり強く残っていなかったのですが、ここでいただいた瞬間スモークより香りが強くなくて食べやすかったです。(あっちはあっちで美味しかったけどw)
Tumblr media
ここで、お酒がなくなったので次のを。メニューに載っている以外にもいろいろありますよ、ということで、出していただいて決めたのが、三重県の「作」SAKE NOUVEAU BY 2021。(私たちが座ったが、入り口横のカウンター端だったのですが、その後ろに日本酒がめっちゃいろいろ入っている冷蔵庫があって、その中から出していただきました)
Tumblr media
最中に書いてあるQRコードから、お店のInstagramをフォローすると、1品サービスで出していただけるということで、さっそくフォローして出していただいた自家製のカラスミ。これでさらに、ーー...日本酒が...進む...止まらないね...!!!
まだまだお鮨が出てきます。こちらはホタルイカとウニの手巻き。
Tumblr media
両方とも私の大好物♡ウニたっぷり、春の美味のホタルイカ♡
Tumblr media
どの角度から撮っても美味しそうだな〜!(そして実際においしい)
そして、浅漬けのカブと一緒に出していただいたのは、白だしがかかった真鱈の白子のお茶漬け。
Tumblr media
白子も大好物、とろとろがすぎる。美味し。あったかいお出汁がかかっているので、きっちり全部飲み干させていただきます。
さあさあ終盤、こいつが出てきたらもうコースも終わり。煮穴子です!
Tumblr media
綺麗な煮穴子!
Tumblr media
どの角度から撮っても可愛い!
Tumblr media
上にかかっている煮ツメ(タレ)がしっかり甘くて、上にかか��たゆず皮の香りと合わさって本当に口の中に爽やかな香りが広がります。あったかい煮穴子は本当にほろほろで、皮目の脂もおいしいし、最高...!まじ口福!
焼かずに蒸し上げたスフレたまご、が出てきました。
Tumblr media
サビ干瓢が出てきて、お鮨は終了です。
Tumblr media
最後に和芥子と合わせた赤だしと、きな粉のプリン。
Tumblr media
こちらのお店のコースは、8800円の愛コースと、12300円の優コースがあるのですが、どちらも同じ品数で、出てくる部位が違うだけということだったので、8800円のコースでも十二分に楽しめました。
「月1回の自己肯定感を上げる贅沢鮨」というよりは、「工夫と職人の技で、発見が楽しめるお鮨」というお店でした。こういうのもいいよね。

“What restaurants did you go to in Tokyo?  How do you get there?  Places to visit in Tokyo?  Things to do in Tokyo?”  
My last and final blog post from Journey to Tokyo (2017)… maybe.  I’m currently packing for another trip en route to in Hong Kong / Taipei, but before leaving, I wanted had to finish up this post and catch up with stuff I’ve been doing before and after the trip…
A view of the rainbow bridge from the shore of Odaiba park / beach area.  You can find see the location HERE.
“What restaurants did you go to in Tokyo and how do you get there?” I’m not telling you guys these spots are a must go to place to eat, but I would definitely recommend it.  If you look on my itinerary from Part 1 of Journey to Tokyo (2017), you’ll find out where I ate and how long it took to get there from my last point of interest.   So lets begin…
1.  Sushi Dai –  Located in the Tsukiji fish market area, it’s known for their 2.5 hrs wait for 10 pieces of sushi selected by the chef and one of your choice.  This is called an omakase. The price of this omakase is 3900Y which is not bad (about $34USD at the time).  The real investment is the wait… people start lining up at 2:30AM.  Yes, AM.  My brother recommended me to do the same so Enrique, Joseph, and I woke up at 2:30AM and Uber-ed our way there.  We arrived at 2:45AM and there were about 10 people ahead of us.  This was in January early in the AM… so temperatures were in the sub 30F / -1C… some people thought we were crazy because what normal people wait outside 2.5-3 hrs for 11 pieces of sushi?  We fell into the food hype, but glad we did because it was a great omakase experience.
We woke up at 2:3oAM and took an Uber for about $25 USD.  You can also stay up late and be in the area or sleep at a manga cafe, but I would recommend taking a taxi or Uber if you don’t want to be dead tired by the time you get in…
Early AM, there’s no one really around…
This was the line for Sushi Dai…
The first few guys started lining up around 2:30AM…
Here you can see Joseph and Enrique in line…
It was -1.1C so I had to take a break from the queue to get some warm milk tea from Aiyo Coffee next door… I’m not sure if the tea tasted awesome because I was frozen but it was definitely warm and tasty.  I asked one of the owners how long they’ve been there, and I think since the 1800s… whoa.
It was 5AM and the first group of people went in… Enrique, Joseph, and I were in the second group and went in at 5:45AM so about 3 hrs from the time we started waiting… 
One of three sushi masters of Sushi Dai….
Is it worth waking up at 2:30AM and waiting in -1.1C for a 3,900Y omakase? If you’re a hype food beast kind of person, yes.  If not, I think you’d be fine with other places at Tsukiji.  I personally wouldn’t wait again, but if a friend who has never went and wanted to do it, I wouldn’t mind going again.  I do hear Sushi Daiwa is comparable to Sushi Dai with a shorter waiting time so I will probably hit up Sushi Daiwa next time.
2.  Gyukatsu Motomura –  I got this recommendation from a couple of friends that went before and looked really good.  They serve breaded beef cutlet… and not just any normal beef, but marbled graded beef.  It’s served raw and you’re able to cook it to your liking with the hot stone.  Because of their recent popularity, there may be a 30-60 minute wait time.  Reason for this is because there’s only 9 seats.  Enrique and I stopped by on a Monday at 3pM and the queue was about 45 minutes.  They told us there was another location in Dogenzaka, or next to SHIBUYA109, with no wait time so we headed there….
Definitely would recommend going here.  Price isn’t too bad either depending on the size of your meal. 
3.  Jiromaru –  A friend, Patrick Leong, who was there at the same time actually recommended this place to us.  It’s a small Yakiniku (Japanese meat grilling) restaurant located in the Shinjuku area.  Ste, Joseph, Enrique and I got there around 3:30PM and there wasn’t a long queue luckily.   They serve Grade A1 to A5 beef with vegetable condiments.  You can either have your own grill or 2 people to one grill.  Great place if you’re meeting someone for a quick yakiniku meeting after work or with a friend.
Somewhere in Shinjuku area…
  I was too busy to keep grilling to keep up with what beef cut was what…
Did I mention it’s a standing bar/grill….
So much marbling… it’s like eating butter…
Beef pron..
This was our bill for 2 people… not bad at all for an afternoon snack…
4.  7-Eleven, Family Mart, etc. –  If you’re in a rush, grab breakfast, lunch, or dinner from any of these convenience stores.  They have pastries, hot/cold beverages, energy jelly drinks (recommended!), and other candies/treats.
I think I grabbed a steamed pizza or pork bun every morning…
5.  Coco Curry Ichibanya –  If you’re a fan of curry, you should definitely try this place out.  It’s interior reminds you of Denny’s but they serve curry with pretty much anything.  There are a few in Japan and I definitely recommend it.
  I should’ve taken a photo prior to eating but forgot… but this was katsu curry with a fried egg…
6.  Dominique Ansel Bakery (Omotesando) –  Joseph’s friend actually recommended this place to us while we were in the Omotesando area.   It’s by the famous inventor of the cronut, Dominique Ansel.   There are other locations around the world and there was even one in the states, NYC to be exact.  We went around noon and it wasn’t packed at all.  The cronut was super crisp but hard af… not sure if that’s how they are supposed to be but after you’re able to cut them with the weak plastic knife, some jizz (not sure what it was), oozes out.  Hesitantly ate it and it was pretty good.
Cronuts were 600Y each… 
Other pastries…
7.  Ichiran Ramen –  Any chance I get, I will visit Ichiran Ramen.  They’re coin machine operated with private eating stalls located all over Japan.  Also open 24 hrs.
Things to do and places to visit in Tokyo 1.  Tsukiji Fish Market –  I know I’ve already mentioned this but I’ll just mention it again.  Lots of great photo opps and lots of places to eat.  I went twice on this trip…
2.  Random Roof Tops –  Don’t get caught going up to a roof top illegally.   You will be arrested and detained lol.  It’s cool if you can find access to some.
3.  Shibuya Crossing –  A definite must do if you’ve never been.
4.  Odaiba –  Diver City, Gundam, Toyota Megaweb, Rainbow bridge view, Sega Arcades, etc.  You can spend a full day site seeing here.
5.  Harajuku / Ometasando–  Fashion district for teens.  A few cafes here and there. Takeashita street is the place to google for.
6.  Akihabara –  Known for their electronic shops and toys for otakus, there are lots of stores around here if you need to shop for souvenirs.
7.  Shinjuku –  Check out the Red Light district at night but stay away from the Nigerian guys that lead you into bars.
I’m probably leaving a bunch more places out but these are the places I recently went on this trip.  Check out the itinerary on Part 1 and make your own accordingly.   Below are random photos from the trip.  Cheers!
35mm Life……
After Sushi Dai, we walked around…
It was early morning so people were still getting their fish ready…
Patrick and Steven went to Sushi Daiwa and we caught up with them afterwards…
Enrique staying warm as possible…
Paul was part of the Sushi Daiwa crew with Patrick and Steven… Paul doesn’t look cold at all…
Early mornings at Tsukiji Fish Market…
The scenery before consumers and tourists take over…
Tsukiji…
Our roof top view at our Airbnb in Akasaka…
Joseph roof top shooting…
I was super tired from Sushi Dai so I slept for a few hours…
Afterwards, I met up with Enrique and we headed to Odaiba…
We originally went for Toyota Megaweb….
But they were closed -_- 
So we went to check out the Gundam one last time before they take it down in March…
Lots of older tourists were there… I don’t think they knew what they were taking photos of…
Then we headed over to Aqua City… 
A beautiful vew of Rainbow Bridge… 
  iphone Life…
That’s pretty much it for Journey to Tokyo (2017).  Will there be another Japan series this year?  Hard to say but anything is possible.   Thanks for reading and checking out the blog as usual.  If you have any suggestions of your own or corrections to my post, please comment!

World’s Best Sushi Restaurants outside Japan that you must visit
Sushi is not merely a dish but an addiction that has conquered the whole globe in the last 50 years. It is an incredibly great refined food that has a lot to choose from. It has taken Japan by storm with the elevating reminiscence. Here is the list of the top 15 sushi restaurants across the world. 
Tumblr media
New York 
Bar Masa 
The main restaurant named Masa across the whole globe is one of the most incredible restaurants. Though it has a hefty price tag for the full menu say USD 450, it is better to visit omakase for the same if you want a budgeted sushi treat for yourself of the same quality. 
Sushi Yasuda
Offering you a choice between seven grades to tuna fattiness, Sushi Yasuda is one of the purest sushi bars with bamboo, wood, and whatnot. It endows the customers with delectable seafood being the best place for a sushi lunch in Manhattan’s midtown. It is similar to Belgium Sushi Restaurant Tako Hiki which is another wonder a sushi restaurant should explore. 
San Francisco
Akiko 
When you visit San Francisco, go for Akiko without any second thought. The seafood they offer to your table always comes from the local fishermen. The second source of their seafood ingredients is the Tsukiji fish market in Tokyo. Do not stuff your tummy with nigiri only however you should try their famous rolls named negitoro with tuna belly, sesame, pickled, and spring onion.
London
Dinings SW 3 
You will find delectable wonders made with the hands of Chef Sugisaki including fatty tuna, black cod, Cornish lobster, and whatnot. Grab a six-place sushi counter and reserve your seats there to relish the incredible culinary wonders that I have found at this Sushi Restaurant Near Me.
Kiku 
One of the oldest family restaurants in London, Kiku is situated in the middle of Mayfair. This restaurant offers 29 various types of nigiri right from razor clam to abalone. The bonus point here is that you get every dish under 100 pounds. Avail of their thirteen courses and enjoy the luxury dining. 
Belgium
Tako Hiki
Situated in the heart of Aarschot, Tako Hiki delivers the Best Sushi in Belgium. Right from Dim sums to Belgium Sushi Bar, this restaurant offers the best Japanese delicacies across the globe. They endow the customers with immense satisfaction with loads of choices available at their doors. It is worth having a bite at a table reserved at Tako Hiki, the most incredible Belgium Sushi Restaurant. 
Paris 
Sushi B
If you are seeking to dine in a sophisticated place in Paris, nothing can be a better place than Sushi B. It serves the customers with a lot of variety while being a serene place that has a minimalistic atmosphere, zen décor, and impeccable dining. Get everything from sushi to crockery at this impeccable restaurant. 
Sushi Okuda
Chef Okuda got his training from Koju which is a lavish sushi place to visit in Tokyo. You can taste the magic of his hands at his restaurant. Tasting the authenticity in food here will take you one step closer to the roots of Japan. Not merely food, but this restaurant has also imitated Japanese flowers, textiles, plants, and architecture too. 
Berlin 
Sasaya 
If intimacy and quality are on top of your priorities list when choosing a sushi restaurant in Berlin, you must head to this sushi studio. It is situated in Prenzlauer Berg which is too awesome to be visited. Pay a visit to this restaurant and relish the best taste. 
Tumblr media
Visiting any of these restaurants will need to follow three simple rules listed below. 
THE SUSHI CODE:
Either eat with fingers or go for chopsticks, don’t cut a piece into bites. 
Don’t dip sushi in soy sauce and wasabi rather add some drops of it on the fishy side. 
Greet the chef in a friendly manner and pay respect to that culinary artist.

Taiwan’s “Tsukiji” Market . Addiction Aquatic Develpment is what I imagine the next itineration of Japan’s famed Tsukiji Fish Market to be like . Clean, modern, and very tourist-friendly, Addiction Aquatic Seafood is best known for their live seafood, take-out sushi bento boxes, and their standing bar sushi area . The standing bar area gets very busy, but a battalion of sushi chefs prepare orders with expertise . 📷 Live Sashimi and Sushi Nigiri Set . Presentation is a 10, but prices can add up, its cash only and quality is a step below Japan or other top tier dedicated omakase restaurants you’ve been . #instafood #foodstagram #foodspotting #yelp #yelptaipei #eater #eatertaipei #eatfamous #bestfoodbayarea #topcitybites #topfoodnews #tastethisnext #addictionaquaticdevelopment #omakase #fishmarket #sushi #sashimi #🍣 #nigiri #seafood #taiwaneats #taipeieats #taiwanesefood #feedfeed #eeeeeats #foodie #foodporn #foodpics #foodgasm #travel (at Addiction Aquatic Development)

Sushi Katsura: Where you should be eating at the Tsukiji Fish Market
Sushi Katsura: Where you should be eating at the Tsukiji Fish Market [REVIEW]
I was told to get to the Tsukiji Fish Market early (like, 5:00 am early), so that we could queue up for one of the sushi bars for breakfast. The two restaurants that were recommended to me were Sushi Dai and Daiwa Sushi. After doing a bit more research and reading nightmare reviews of people queuing for up to four hours for an overly priced, mediocre omakase sushi breakfast, there was no way I…

Iwasa Sushi, Tsukiji Fish Market (岩佐寿し)
Tumblr media
Tsukiji Market is home to some of the freshest sushi in Tokyo, with a huge range of restaurants to dine at. Some of the more popular ones have queues with more than a couple hours wait, due to their limited seats.
After walking around the main area, I found this restaurant just off the side street, with a very small line, so thought I’d go for it.
Tumblr media
The staff and diners were all Japanese, with the bare minimum spoken english. There wasn’t even an english menu, but it wasn’t necessary as I had already decided to have their Omakase set menu.

Being bench seats surrounding the chef's 'kitchen', the dining space you have is limited. I don't know what else was on their menu, but I don't think anyone would be ordering more than one dish!
Tumblr media
The miso soup had little pipis in it, adding an interesting flavour to the broth. It was odd, but nice.

I don’t know what I was served, but all the different pieces were unique in flavours and quite tasty. I had trouble holding the nigiri with my chopstick, and the gentleman next to me assured (using hand gestures) that using my fingers was perfectly okay!
The only other issue I had, was that there was far too much wasabi on each piece - at least, for me anyway! The chef and other diners around me did get a chuckle out of every time I scrunched my nose from the intense wasabi heat. 
The atmosphere was bustling and while it felt a little rushed at times, the staff and diners were very casual and laid-back.
