Savor Sushi, Zoni, and Sake in the Heart of Ginza
"Ginza Kurosu Higashi Ginza" is conveniently located just a 1-minute walk from Tokyo Metro Higashi-Ginza Station. The restaurant takes pride in sushi made with steamed shari (sushi rice) — a rarity both in Japan and abroad — offering a refined texture that highlights the natural umami of each grain. At lunchtime, freshly pounded rice cakes are used to prepare zoni (rice-cake soup), accompanied by matcha whisked by the owner. In the evening, a well-curated selection of local sake complements the cuisine beautifully. The serene interior, wrapped in the warmth of wood and washi paper, provides an inviting setting ideal for family gatherings or dinners with friends. It is a tranquil retreat where guests can savor special moments away from the bustle of everyday life.
Experience Sushi Highlighting the Subtle Art of Steamed Rice
Steamed rice sushi, "mushi-sari," is gaining popularity for its unique texture that enhances the flavor of each grain. It is known for its meticulous attention to detail, from selecting fish that complements the toppings to using specially crafted boiled soy sauce. Take your time savoring each piece of sushi, crafted with care.
Sake and Zoni to Complement an Exquisite Sushi Experience
The owner will suggest a brand that suits your taste from the wide selection of sake available. A paid sake tasting experience is available, showcasing a selection of local brews. The sushi is accompanied by zoni (rice cake soup) featuring soft, flavorful rice cakes made from glutinous rice produced in Niigata Prefecture.
