São Paulo, a Global Capital for Japanese Cuisine
"At first blush, you might just forget you're not in a bustling corner of Tokyo. A few meters from the frenetic pace of the Avenida Paulista, a small door opens to reveal a warm space in an unassuming shopping center—it's one of the best Japanese restaurants in the city and also one of its most traditional. Here, you’ll find a single chef behind the counter, armed with nothing but a rice cooker and a chopping board. Keisuke Egashira slices fish with surgical precision and his menu changes with the season (red snapper, amberjack, grouper, sea bass). Working with speed and rigor, Egashira barely has time to glance around the room. One taste and you'll realize why the restaurant that has been awarded One MICHELIN Star." - The MICHELIN Guide
