Urasawa: Splurging once every 3 years

Sorry, I haven't had time to write it up. But everyone knows how amazing Urasawa is anyway, right? So for now, just enjoy the pictures ...

Hairy crab salad.Toro tataki, with yuzu, crysanthemum leaves, and gold flakes.
This dish has uni underneath. Urasawa's uni really is the best I've ever had. Nothing else is quite like it. Very sweet and the freshness is undebatable.














Sashimi ice sculpture.


Cod sperm sac tempura. (Sperm sac?? Yep .. Hey, it was GOOD)
Hairy crab, with hairy crab brain, topped with uni.

Seared wagyu beef. Yumm ...
This was what we got for the shabu shabu dish. It has live lobster, scallop, toro, and foie gras (in that order).


Hiro's apprentice killing a lobster.













Fresh lobster sushi.
We had so many different types of fish that night. Including needle fish, fresh kuruma shrimp, mirugai ...

Seared toro. The best sushi ever ... I had like 5 of them that night ... *sigh*
Negi toro maki.
Ripe persimmon for dessert.

Very Nice!

I was quite impressed by your photos. Makes me even more eager for my trip in 2 weeks.

After enjoying your review I thought it only fair to share my recent experience at Urasawa.
