Counters I've eaten at, one entry at a time

Everything in the foodie log is from my own visits — my photos, my notes, my opinions, and nobody else's. It's an ongoing record rather than a finished guide, so I'll keep adding places as I eat my way around Japan's counters. Check back now and then.

Nishiazabu Otake: pared-back Japanese cooking near Roppongi
Wayoshusai Hide: one of Japan's best izakaya, in Osaka
Seizan: a two-star Kaiseki built on its broths
Sushidokoro Yamato: Sugita lineage at an eight-seat Tsukiji counter
Sushi Hashimoto: generous Edomae nigiri a block from the old Tsukiji
Sushi Mizukami: Space Full of Elegancy and Gentleness
Sushi Ei: a Tokyo-grade counter worth the ride to Chiba
