ChefMr. Masamichi Amamoto - A Craftsman Who Inherits the Legend
Influenced by his father, who ran a food stall in Nakasu, Fukuoka, he aspired to become a chef. After training at Japanese restaurants such as "Toya Uoshin" in Akasaka, he was introduced to the legendary sushi chef, Mitsuyasu Nagano, by a senior colleague and was deeply impressed. He became Nagano's apprentice at "Umami" and served as his second-in-command for about seven years. He then further honed his skills in Japanese cuisine at "Shinohara" in Shiga (now in Ginza) and "Gion Sasaki" in Kyoto. When he became independent as "Higashi Azabu Tenmoto," reservations were fully booked even before the opening, and he was regarded as one of the leading young chefs in Edomae sushi.
Food "The Absolute Trust Relationship Between Sushi Chefs and Wholesalers That Enables Procurement."
Even if it's seasonal, if I think it's just a little off, I absolutely won't purchase it, and I only serve what I believe is delicious. Therefore, the menu changes daily. I rely on a trusted intermediary. I source the finest ingredients that cannot be found in Tsukiji directly from the producers at the Chuo Market in Fukuoka, where I was born and raised. The artisans trust the intermediary's discerning eye and sense, and the intermediary recognizes the artisans' skills in bringing out the true excellence of the ingredients, which is why truly exceptional fish can be found at "Amamoto."
SpaceA Refined Space Where Tradition and Modernity Intersect
At the foot of Tokyo Tower, in close proximity to Zojoji Temple, the family temple of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Edo Shogunate, lies the quietly standing "Higashi Azabu Tenmon." Its chic black exterior already exudes the elegance of a modern Edomae sushi establishment. The interior is designed by Akira Sugihara, known for his work with renowned Kyoto restaurants like "Mizai." Dining on sushi in this space, which is aptly described as exquisite and refined, will inevitably lead one to reflect on the essence of traditional craftsmanship and the advancements in logistics.
The Future of Modern Edomae Sushi: Honoring the Spirit of Renowned Restaurants with Exquisite Fish and Craftsmanship
Masamichi Amano, who trained under the renowned Nagano Mitsuyasu at the famous restaurant "Umi," has now opened his own establishment. With a refined eye for quality, strong relationships with supplie...rs, and skills that transcend traditional Edomae sushi, he brings a unique touch to both his craft and customer service. His dedication to sourcing and hospitality reflects the spirit of his mentor while showcasing his own brilliance as a sushi chef.
Just six months after opening, he earned two Michelin stars in the Tokyo 2017 guide, marking a bright future for modern Edomae sushi right here in Higashi Azabu.
