Nishiazabu Kamikura
Enjoy authentic Edomae sushi with Akita-grown rice, and seafood personally selected by the chef every morning, fresh from Toyosu Fish Market.
Restaurant Details
At Nishiazabu Kamikura, head chef Takashi Kamikura and his team don’t settle for second best. Every morning at daybreak in Toyosu Market, they assemble without fail outside historic tuna wholesaler Hicho’s doors, prepared to adorn their sushi counters with nothing but the freshest, fattiest fish.
That’s to say nothing of the rice. Nishiazabu Kamikura exclusively uses Tsubuzoroi, a special variety of rice sourced only from the mineral-rich coastal paddies of Ogata Village in Akita Prefecture. Its larger grains make it the perfect taste and texture for sushi rice.
At Kamikura, these subtleties make all the difference. Chef Kamikura invites guests to taste the differences between fish aged to varying degrees in the seasonal whitefish tabe-kurabe (tasting comparison) course.
Also included in the course menu is the tuna tabe-kurabe course, letting diners compare the quality of akami (lean tuna meat), chutoro (medium-fatty tuna belly) and otoro (fatty tuna belly) sourced directly from Toyosu Market’s finest.
Enjoy a variety of seasonal seafood, procured personally by the head chef every morning from Toyosu Fish Market. Partake in an array of seasonal white fish aged for different lengths of time, three types of tuna (akami, chutoro and otoro), as well as what Chef Kamikura proudly proclaims to be the best sea urchin on the market. ※ This is the new price from June 1, 2024 onwards. Please note that the menu content is subject to change depending on seasonal availability.
