Today, I went to “Magurobito Kaminarimon Shuchoujyo”, which was a stand-up sushi shop Asakusa residents frequently visited. It was located 1~2 minutes walk from Asakusa station.
I arrived there at 10:45, 15 minutes before its opening. I waited its opening looking at menu on an outdoor signboard. There were 6 people in line at opening and the shop became full in a few minutes. When I tried to order, I was asked how many pieces I would like to have by one order. I answered “One piece”.
Red sea bream(left,¥140), Gizzard shad(¥140)
Giant clam(¥140), Tuna(¥170)
Japanese scallop(¥170), Golden cuttlefish(¥170)
Horse mackerel(¥170), Tuna pickled in soy sauce(¥170)
Overall impression was,
1. Sushi toppings were thick and large.
2. Less vinegar in rice
3. Larger portion of wasabi
Most delicious one was tune. Tuna played an excellent job with dried seaweed in Negitoromaki.
You had better stay there short, since it was a stand-up sushi shop.
