2-8-5 Kajichō, Chiyoda, Tokyo 101-0044
A Kanda sushi house in its fifth generation, from a line that began with a street stall. Its master shops the market in person, and cured fish is the house's strength.
The proof, in the house's own words
Craft
Rice from an iron hagama, vinegared exactly as the founder did.
“創業以来変わらない「割り」で合わせた酢”
Technique
Shime-mono, the cured pieces, is the house's strength, it says.
“当店は江戸前寿司の特徴の１つである「〆物」を得意としております”
Tradition
Five masters, from a cook who trained at Yohei-zushi.
“江戸前鮨「神田笹鮨」の味・技術・暖簾を歴代店主は受け継いでいます”
Sourcing
The master buys at Toyosu each morning; no farmed or frozen fish.
“主人が毎日魚河岸（豊洲市場）へ行って…直接仲買から買ったもの…養殖物や冷凍物は使用いたしません”
We'd add
Our runner-upEdomae nigiri, the house's set, fish the master chose that morning on rice cooked in an iron pot, seasoned the founder's way. For the rest of the counter.
