Jushu
"The crest on the shop curtain depicts a Eurasian magpie, the official bird of Saga Prefecture, in flight. The same motif is embroidered on the cooks’ whites. From his native Saga, the chef sources rice, Imari beef and yuzu pepper. Serving vessels of Karatsu and mid-Edo-period Imari are a point of pride. In a nod to Osaka experience, each dish is served once the previous one has been consumed. No food is wasted, and for the same reason decorative vegetation is never used. Grilled items are served with rice and soup, as in a set meal, expressing the restaurant's free-spirited character." - Michelin Inspector
