Sushi Restaurant in Tenjinbashisuji Shopping Street

Dishes mentioned

• Uni Sushi

  I start with a bite of that uni because it just looks like melted butter. A little bit of soy sauce through the bottom of it — it's so creamy and so smooth with just a little bit of a seafoody flavor to it. Oh that's fantastic. And then it's paired with a slice of cucumber in there as well, giving it a fresh crunch at the same time.

• Crab Sushi

  I grab one of the crab — I think there's a dab of wasabi on the bottom of that rice as well. Well that's wonderful, flaky and sweet.

• Tuna Belly Sushi

  It's tuna belly time. Just look at these slabs of tuna belly. I saw some other people eating what they did was they took the piece of fish and they dipped it in the soy sauce and then put it back on the rice, so I think that might work really well. But just look at that ratio of fish to rice — that is a beautiful thing. It just completely encases the rice. I don't even love it too — that's disintegrating on my tongue.

• Saba Sushi

  Let's give this saba a try. Look at that slab. The saba has a very salty, salty flavor to it.

• Natto Roll

  I'm also really excited to try a natto roll. Natto is the fermented soybean kind of sauce. Many people have been asking me to try it, so this is my first time. This is a hand roll made with natto. I'd better do a smell test before I eat it — not extremely strong but does sort of smell a little sourish. I gotta make sure I get a lot of natto in my first bite. That's okay. It's a little bit like slimy. Yeah, that's what it is, it's a little bit slimy and almost has a burnt flavor to it. I think that's all right. Oh it's really slimy, like makes the grains of rice slimy as well. And the seaweed, as I was just holding this and talking, some natto is starting to slip out the bottom. Just look at that. Okay, I better eat it.
