ChefDaigo Sakai - Aiming for greater heights based on the teachings of his master
Born in Fukuoka Prefecture in 1979. After three years of training at Takatama Sushi in Fukuoka, he studied for seven years at Umimi in Tokyo. The following year, in 2014, it was awarded one star in the "Michelin Guidebook (Fukuoka Saga Edition)". After moving to its current location in Nishinakasu in March 2017, it was awarded three Michelin stars in 2019. In order to taste authentic Edomae sushi held by reliable craftsmanship, there are many gourmets who frequently visit from afar.
SpaceA dignified Sukiya-style building furnished by traditional craftsmen
The sukiya-style space, designed by Maeda Shinji, a leading figure in sukiya architecture, exudes a tranquil yet soft atmosphere without any sense of oppression. The simply processed Kyoto Kitayama cedar has a dignified purity that suggests it will age beautifully over time. Guests can enjoy the finest sushi in this elegant space that brings a comfortable harmony to the space.
Food Authentic Edomae sushi created with skillful techniques
The sushi, made with techniques that are the fruit of years of training, is truly worthy of being called the pinnacle of Edomae sushi. One of the attractions of this restaurant is that you can feel the change of seasons from the ingredients sourced from all over the country, and you can enjoy different flavors every time you visit. Furthermore, the owner, who strongly asserts that "80% of the flavor of sushi comes from the vinegared rice," is thorough in that he considers the vinegared rice to be the foundation and "changes the temperature of the ingredients." This small ingenuity brings out the umami of the ingredients to the fullest. Each piece of sushi, which has been carefully calculated, brings about a moment filled with happiness.
The exquisite sushi is served one after the other with graceful movements. A perfect harmony of tradition and evolution, the ultimate in delicious sushi.
Sushi Sakai was opened by Sakai Taiko, a talented chef who trained at Umi. It is a famous restaurant that has captivated many gourmets with its authentic Edomae sushi that is not bound by convention w
...hile still respecting tradition. The freshness of the ingredients and the high-quality rice are of course captivating, as are the smooth movements of the chef's sushi. Sushi shows completely different expressions depending on the precise temperature control and the strength of the sushi. Guests will be surprised and excited by the large number of dishes that are served one after another. In the beautiful space of the Sukiya-style building that exudes a sense of wabi-sabi, you will want to take your time to savor each exquisite bite.
