Fukushima-ku is near Umeda

Sushi-Fukushima

The sushi is authentic, and you can also enjoy the performance!
Ninjya, Mario and Luigi performance!

I would be happy if this blog could be helpful for you who is considering going to this restaurant♪

You can watch our YouTube movie in English!

So, what kind of restaurant is “Sushi Fukushima”?

It is a sushi restaurant where the sushi is delicious, and there are experiential sushi and performances.

Tuna backbone is scraped off with a spoon.

That's right…
I was skeptical at first too…

Oh!

But since the sushi was delicious, I thought it was acceptable for me.

I see....

This restaurant is not in the traditional style, but I thought it would be one genre of sushi restaurants in 10 years.

I also didn’t like conveyor sushi restaurants at first.
But now I usualy go there, and it has become one genre of sushi restaurants.

Hahaha...
That's true.

So, this restaurant was delicious, fun, and easy to book on the web, so there were many foreign tourists.

The staff can also communicate in the phone in English.

So, where is the restaurant?

It is close to the JR Tozai Line's Shin-Fukushima Station from Exit 2!

Cited from Tabe-log

The restaurant can be easily found on the main street!

It's about a 5 minute walk from Shin-fukushima station!

It's nice that it's so close to the station!

I have made a video showing easy directions from JR Shin-Fukushima Station in English!

I had a reservation for 12:00 p.m. I arrived at 11:45 a.m. and the restaurant was already open!

お店の外観

It's rare to find a sushi restaurant that opens earlier than its opening time!

Ah…
That's right.
It's convenient if the restaurant opens early.

So, I would like to go ahead and try entering the restaurant!

Entering the restaurant!

The restaurant had a stylish atmosphere.

The counter
(Cited from Tabe-log)

There were counter seats and bench seats for family!

Bench seats
(Cited from Tabe-log)

I reserved at the counter seat so I could see the chef's activity.

A family with a small child was seated at the bench seat.
It's good because they have a kids' menu!

That's right!

Besides, you can only reserve counter seats for Chef's choice (OMAKASE) courses.

About 60% of the people there were foreign tourists.
And the restaurant was full.

That's amazing!

So I was shown to a narrow counter seat.

But, the chef gave me one free sushi because the seats was narrow.

We are glad to see the chef's consideration.

The omakase course was served from 12:00.

The course was start!

Drinks at this restaurant can be ordered via QR code by the cell phone.

However, I couldn't order properly using by my cell phone.
For those who couldn't use the QR code, the chef took the order!!

I see...
We don't need to worry about it!

Check out the video starting up to the Omakase course!

Enjoy the meal!

The trays were shiny and stylish.

The plate on which the sushi was placed was also auspicious!

The letters means "Good fortune"

This time I went alone.

So, in this blog, I'll be eito's conversation partner!

Appetizers

The appetizer was tofu skin(Yuba tofu).

Tofu skin

The richness of the tofu skin was so delicious, I ate it in one bite.

I see...
Yuba is the skin formed by heating soy milk over medium heat until a film forms.

The appetizer was covered with almonds and horseradish, which gave it a different texture.

Scraped tuna from the backbone

Tuna backbone was coming!

Scraped tuna

The tuna meat on the backbone was scraped off with a spoon by yourself♪

It's nice to be able to experience these things.

That's right.

The tuna are vibrant!

I had never had it like this before, so it was a fresh experience and delicious.

Most delicious fatty tuna

It is the most delicious part of the tuna, even for a fatty tuna.

Fatty tuna

The fat was the best taste!

Looks amazingly delicious!

First of all, It was already climax sushi!

Tuna soaked in soy sause and aged

Next sushi was tuna soaked in soy sause and aged!

Tuna soaked in soy sause

The tuna continues, but it's so delicious that it bringed me a smile.

Grilled Salmon

It had the delicious aroma of grilled salmon.

Grilled salmon

Since it was seared, the fat was melted and delicious!

The foreign tourist's favorite sushi continued… ♪

Yes, I think so!

Sardine roll with green onion and ginger

This roll was for a short break in the course!

イワシの巻き物

The sardines were also delicious!
They went well with the green onions and ginger

This is good too!

The sardines and green onions went well together.

Western-style egg pudding

It was an egg pudding with mascarpone and bacon in a Western style.

洋風茶碗蒸し

This was a little too salty for me.

Cuttlefish

However, the next sushi iwas Cuttlefish, one of squid, which has a light flavor, so it balanced out the salty pudding.

Cuttlefish

This is good too!

This one was chewy and delicious.

I will trust a sushi restaurant that serves chewy and delicious squid.

Young sea bream, Kasugo-dai

The young sea bream that can only be caught in early spring are called “kasugo-dai”.

Kasugo-dai

The chef boiled the skin in hot water to soften it.

This is a rare sushi, isn't it?

That's right.
It was seasonal fish and it was delicious.

I thought the chef's technique was outstanding.

Cardinal fish

Cardinal fish had a beautiful color.

Ahh.. that's so true..

Yeah.
It was wonderful.

Cardinal fish was fatty and delicious!
