Perfect Chutoro & Otoro Sushi | Japanese Eats

The chutoro and otoro sushi at Saitosho Sushi was absolutely incredible. The fish was extremely fresh, and was paired with perfectly seasoned rice. The rice is seasoned with different types of red vinegar to ensure that sushi is in perfect harmony.

Like many of Tokyo’s hidden gems, Sushisho Saito is located on the second floor of a nondescript office building, in Akasaka. “Sho” means “master,” and Sho Saito is known throughout Tokyo’s culinary underground as one of the most gifted sushi masters in town.

Sushisho Saito was rated one star in the inaugural Michelin Guide Tokyo a few years back but disappeared from the book since then. Rumors have it Chef Keiji Nakazawa, considered the master of the Sushisho "school", once kicked out the Michelin inspectors from his restaurant for being unknowledgeable, and since then, all his and his disciples' restaurants were not rated anymore.
