Sushi YUU, the chef; Mr. Ozaki has been worked at Kamakura Izumi(鎌倉 以ず美) which is also michelin stared Sushi bar. Also this restaurant got one Michelin star less than one year from opening.
Here is a small sushi bar, there is only 8 sheet and one room for 4 person.

Make use of over several kind of Japanese Seasoning, for instance utilizing two different type of Mirin depends on foods.

Not only traditional taste, but also trying to establish own taste, one of the signature food is called “Purine roll” which is a rich taste with Ankimo (monkfish liver)

Also the chef and staff are very friendly, you can enjoy not only foods but also chatting with them.

OMAKASE Course

Let me pick up signature foods from the course.

Purine roll

This roll is made of rice and Ankimo(monkfish liver) mix and wrapped with seaweed with Cucumber.

As you may know that Ankimo has high purine, so this roll is very “un-health”, but yummy. 🙂
Also Mr. “Sniper” Inoue would like to be taken photo like above.

Red snapper with marinated kelp

According to the chef; Mr. Ozaki, one of the favorite sushi is red snapper with marinated kelp, so his own red snapper is also delicious.

This red snapper is marinated with kelp, so its fish smell has gone and the fish meat also get softer. very yummy.

Mineoka dofu

This tofu is made of milk and cone, the taste is similar with mascarpone cheese.
