Kokorozashi Stories (Interview in Japanese)

Commitments

One sushi, one soul

Our desire is to create sushi that is perfectly balanced, like the Chinese character "一" (which means "1"). The character looks like just a horizontal line, but it is difficult to write it beautifully; the process of how to begin, how to turn, and how to stop all matter. Not only the taste itself but also the beauty at the sight and the movements in making sushi constitute the daintiness of our sushi.
We make each one of our sushi in traditional Edomae-style, with our artistic craftsmanship and deep cordiality.
The trinity of three elements of sushi combines together: ingredients, vinegared rice and wasabi. We serve our sushi with careful consideration of the temperature, humidity and ripeness so that you can enjoy the perfect balance of the trinity when you put it in your mouth.

Dignity and sense

We hope our guests to fully enjoy their moment at our restaurant. The interior of our restaurant is designed in a traditional and simplistic style so that our services with craftsmanship and appreciations will stand out at the counter as the "stage".
All the woods used for our restaurant are of the finest, selected quality. Our restaurant has dignified atmosphere starting from the "noren"(the Japanese entrance curtain) through the appearance of the ceiling.
We embrace and place great importance on creating comfortable space with refreshing atmosphere as a sushi restaurant of Edomae-style, where you will enjoy our sushi as if you were watching a live dance performance at the "stage".

Sushi-dō

In the process of mastering the art of sushi, each chef polishes not only their skills and knowledge, but also their character and personality, and this is how they acquire the mind and body of a sushi chef.
We believe that "dining" is a way to make people "better". Based on this belief, Shinji Kanesaka will nurture and guide the "sushi chefs" of Sushi Kanesaka with character, intelligence, sensitivity, and reason as the foundation of his teaching.
