What to know
Chef Yamada trained in Osaka before opening his intimate sushi counter in Nishiazabu in January 2024, where he focuses on Edomae techniques. The serene space seats just a few guests, which allows for a personal experience as Yamada prepares each piece. His meticulous work is especially evident in his signature kohada, for which he adjusts the level of vinegar depending on the season. Other highlights include kasugo, shirauo, and anago, all prepared with a focus on highlighting the natural flavors of the ingredients.
