From the morning market
to the counter
the same day

The fish is chosen at the market in the morning, and only as much as the day needs is bought. What comes in changes from day to day.

The rice comes from southern Hokkaido, seasoned with red and rice vinegar. With eight seats, each piece goes straight from the hand to the counter.
