Kyubey Ginza

Sushi · $$$$ · Tokyo

Founded 1936, Ginza. The inventor of hand-rolled temaki at a sushi counter. Chef Imada's nigiri uses hand-temperature rice — warmer than most, a deliberate choice that changes the fat interaction with the fish.

    Maki

    Tuna hand roll invented at Kyubey in 1932. Nori wrapped around hand-temperature rice and tuna. The original. Still the version every Tokyo sushi chef benchmarks against.
