While walking around Tsukiji, we kept seeing ads for Sushi Zanmai
Mainly, you've seen the owner/chef on alot of documentary about the fish market. Because he's the one that breaks down the tuna and sell the pieces to you on the spot.
Naturally, his restaurant is all over Tokyo.
I like sitting at the sushi counter to see the action. The chefs are so busy and their speed of making the dishes is crazy fast. They're constantly bringing fresh rice from the back so they are ready to go as the order goes in.
Starting with an iced green tea, because we're in Japan.
They give you a miso soup to start, and then here comes dinner:
For 2980 yen, which is about $21 USD, you get 15 pieces of sushi.... all fresh.
Here's a few from the selection: Tuna roe, Tamago (egg), scallop, squid, Kani (crab), shrimp, Fatty Tuna 2 kinds, salmon, anago, and tuna sushi roll.
When I walked in, they were so swamp that the staff were running around. And since I'm in a very touristy area, having English speaking staff was not difficult. Even though they're busy, the service was still fast.
