  1. A Michelin-starred sushi counter in Minamiazabu where the sourcing traces back to the chef's home in Kumamoto: seafood from the Amakusa islands, salt, soy, and local sake all from the same region. The rice gets particular attention here, matched to red or rice vinegar by the topping, sometimes blended from separately cooked batches. It's a quiet reminder that sushi is, at its core, just a very considered way of eating rice.
