We will guide you to the bright stage of “nigirizushi” (hand-pressed sushi) that was born in the sea in front of Edo (current-day Tokyo) and is disseminated to the world by Tsukiji. At a time when ingredients are brought from around the world, how to grasp the best seasons for tasting or how to taste them are becoming more diversified. You will enjoy sushi by seeing it. You will feel delight by eating it. And you will cherish it by knowing about it. Tradition and evolution are both supporting delicious sushi. In each season, we will introduce nigirizushi you can try.
