Sushiyoshi opens a new restaurant!

“Sushiyoshi” in Tsuruhashi is a restaurant regularly featured on TV for its “gourmet nigiri sushi” that’s great even without soy sauce. I’ve eaten there several times.
This time I went to their restaurant in Minamisenba, which opened in April 2014!

■ Gourmet Course (by reservation only) ¥7,000

Great crisp texture.

Winter’s little red jewel box was absolutely amazing!
