    Expertly Crafted Nigiri Enhanced by Red Vinegar Rice and Searing

    "Tsukiji Kagura Sushi New building" is a casual sushi restaurant near the lively Tsukiji Outer Market, with an atmosphere that is also welcoming to families. While some menu items differ from those at the main restaurant, it continues the Edomae preparation techniques passed down over the years. The chefs visit the market themselves to check the freshness, seasonality, and condition of the fish each day, buying only ingredients that meet their standards and deciding how to prepare them after seeing the ingredients firsthand. The sushi is made with rice seasoned with an original red vinegar used for more than a decade, while seared items are grilled over a wire rack for a fragrant finish. Diners can choose individual pieces from around 40 types of toppings, along with sashimi, grilled, fried, and simmered dishes. The chefs' craftsmanship brings out the seasonal flavors of Tsukiji, adding a memorable moment to a day of travel.

    Fresh Morning-Caught Fish Sourced from Two Fishing Ports

    The appeal of "Umaimon Tonya Ureshi Tanoshiya" lies above all in its fresh local ingredients. The company president recalls, "When we first opened, I knew little about the ingredients from the area where I was born and raised." Six months later, the restaurant closed temporarily while he traveled around the Miura Peninsula, where he realized, "The Miura Peninsula is a treasure trove of ingredients." This became a major turning point. Today, the restaurant holds auction bidding rights at two nearby fishing ports and serves dishes made with fresh seafood purchased directly by the president, earning popularity among a wide range of diners.

    Craft Beer Made with Ingredients from the Miura Peninsula

    "Yokosuka Beer" opened in 2017 as the first craft brewery in Yokosuka, Kanagawa Prefecture. The first floor houses a British-style brewery that produces beers, including one that won the top award in its category at the "World Beer Awards 2026," an international competition featuring beers from around the world. The idea for the business came from a flash of inspiration by the company president. He worried that if adults went through life with their heads down, the future might look bleak for children as well. Yet he believed that even in such times, drinking beer could give adults a moment to lift their heads. Dedicated to sharing the appeal of the Miura Peninsula, the company has embraced local production for local consumption, creating craft beer that is now widely recognized as a specialty of the peninsula. The second-floor restaurant serves craft beer brewed downstairs alongside dishes made with ingredients from the Miura Peninsula.
