Despite having a discreet entrance in a dark narrow alley, this tiny self-proclaimed ‘sake pairing restaurant’ is fully booked months ahead. There is only one omakase menu featuring kappo dishes made with seasonal produce mostly flown in from Japan. Sake pairing is a vital part of the experience as the chef/sake master serves each drink at a different temperature to bring out the best in each course, and that includes some rare small labels.
