Edo-style sushi at about 200m above ground while gazing at the Tokyo nightscape 🍣✨️
At "Sushi Bijusshi" on the 46th floor of Caretta Shiodome

This restaurant inherits a 170-year history, and this time I tried the "Futo Sushi Kaiseki," which allows you to enjoy sushi and seasonal kaiseki cuisine at once.

First of all, the view is really beautiful...🥺
Eating sushi while looking at the night view outside the window is a special experience in itself♡

What surprised me was the experience of the craftsmen.
All the craftsmen have been dedicated to sushi for many years, starting with the master who has been exclusively focused on sushi for 45 years. It's like everyone is a master!✨️

The appetizer has a sense of season, and the Chawanmushi includes shrimp, ginkgo nuts, pumpkin, with a touch of black olives, which goes well with the gentle sweetness of pumpkin.

The bluefin tuna sashimi is served with a sauce made from grain mustard, which adds a bit of an unexpected twist for Japanese cuisine♡

The grilled gurnard has a chestnut flavor, perfect for autumn, and the tofu with purple sweet potatoes is combined with yogurt sauce, making it a cute dish you can eat even the flowers 🌸

And unforgettable are the thick shiitake mushrooms…!
The size is really something else 😂
Meeting such a large shiitake mushroom is truly a rare event…

From here on to the nigiri 🍣

The sea bream from Ehime Prefecture is thick with a chewy texture.
The slightly grilled red bream adds just the right amount of smokey flavor, delicious~

The shrimp from Kagoshima Prefecture is so large it surprises you the moment you see it 🦐
The plump texture was the best.

The grilled scallop is a treat for even the aroma.
The Fuji salmon comes with grain mustard from France, providing a fresh taste that impresses♡

The bluefin tuna is tender.
The medium fatty tuna melts in your mouth the moment you put it in 🥺

Moreover, the seared fatty tuna jaw with salt
The roasted aroma and sweet fat come together, making it exceptionally luxurious…

The small bowl of salmon roe and sea urchin looks beautiful
With plenty of sea urchin, it is unbelievably creamy and blissful 😭
