Sushi Ōmi Shinagawa — Restaurant in Tokyo

On my last day in Tokyo, I enjoyed an unforgettable Lunch Nigiri Course at Sushi Ōmi Shinagawa - an absolute highlight of my Japan trip!

🍣 The Meal: Perfectly balanced 7-piece nigiri selection (the tamagoyaki egg sushi was a revelation) Incredibly flavorful steamed sushi Heartwarming small bowl dish Authentic washoku preparation Delicate dessert to complete the experience

The otoro (fatty tuna) was flavorless and had stringy cartilage running through BOTH pieces - that I ordered separately. This is simply nforgivable in Japanese sushi culture. Also, I ordered mackerel and kohada (the Japanese menu listed 鯖 & 小肌) but both came out cured in vinegar (shime-saba and shime-kohada) which is unacceptable and not what one expects.
