Michelin Star Sushi vs Traditional Sushi | Tokyo Sushi Restaurants

Some of Tokyo's best high-end sushi restaurants that have excellent quality at a fair price. Since the reservations and wait for the 3 michelin star Sukiyabashi Jiro Sushi restaurant can be more than months or years, I thought I could give you some alternative restaurants that deliver when it comes to omakase sushi!

This time I was able to try sushi from Sushi Kimura, a michelin 2 star sushi restaurant.
What's different about Kimura’s sushi compared to the other 20 michelin starred sushi restaurants in Tokyo, is that he serves aged fish sushi. More than 90% of the michelin starred sushi restaurants serve edomae sushi which consists of the traditional raw fish.

I was also able to try sushi from Sushi Namba, a small 12 seater sushi shop located in the local suburbs of Tokyo and has run purely by word of mouth for 50 years. (This time I had permission to film and share his work with you here :D)

Having both the chef's prepare the sushi right in front of me, and seeing how concentrated, passionate and serious they were about sushi was truly inspiring.

Hope you guys enjoy the video and the sushi experience :)
