A piece of calligraphy above the counter reads "Jikishin," a Zen phrase meaning "true heart," and was given to the chef by his mentor. This Michelin-starred Akasaka sushi counter runs an omakase that opens with dishes rooted in Kyoto tradition before moving into nigiri. The sushi rice, blended from two harvests, carries a faint, lingering sweetness you don't quite expect. A quiet, focused room for people who find small details worth paying attention to.
