What to know
Chef Mei is one of Tokyo's most respected young sushi chefs, having trained for years at the legendary Arai before opening Sushi Meino in Azabujuban. Her intimate counter is the setting for a 25-course omakase, which includes a parade of seasonal nigiri and small delicacies. Because Chef Mei is one of the few female sushi masters in Tokyo, reservations are very difficult to secure, but well worth the effort for serious sushi lovers.
