On my way back from SF, I made a brief stopover in Tokyo for a couple of days of meetings. I was lucky to snag a last minute reservation at Harutaka, a very well-known sushi restaurant in the heart of Ginza.
Chef Harutaka is a disciple of Jiro Ono, considered by many the greatest sushi master in the world. Harutaka's sushi style conforms closely to his master's, and he shares the same level of dedication and pride in creating each sushi course by hand as you watch from behind the counter of this 10 seater restaurant.
The omakase course set me back Y21,000 but this is clearly the stuff sushi dreams are made of.
