Sushi Ichimura

5 New Spots from MICHELIN Guide Star Restaurants

"Sushi Ichimura marks legendary sushi chef Eiji Ichimura’s delicious return to the Big Apple. This intimate 10-seat sushi counter offers guests the opportunity to experience Edomae-style omakase in its highest form. The menu features approximately 20 courses, consisting of seasonal appetizers, or otsumami, including chef’s signature house-made mochi rice cracker filled with Hokkaido bafun uni and Kaviari caviar, followed by over 12 courses of delicately aged nigiri and temaki; and finished with seasonal desserts like Japanese-style tea desserts (manju buns, yokan) served with rare teas. It’s a story of chef’s culinary journey and his mastery in aging fish." - Kevin Chau
