Sushi Dai Redux
Posted by: alkanphel on: November 15, 2011
A visit to Tokyo isn’t complete without a visit to Tsukiji as well. Even though I’ve been here before, this time I wanted to explore the Tsukiji Inner Market so I was looking for a place to have sushi there with a short queue.
Originally I planned to try out another place besides Sushi Dai but this time when I reached, the other shops had queues and Sushi Dai didn’t have one! So I guess it was Sushi Dai yet again – which isn’t a bad thing anyway.
And I’m sitting at the exact same place I sat the last time I was here, being served by the same chef.
They keep most of the shellfish on this side of the chiller.
The same appetizer, a warm chunk of tamago. This time I remembered to snap a photo of it before I ate it!
Otoro
Shiro maguro
Tai
Uni gunkan-maki
Akami maguro
Akagai
Aji
Shiro ebi
Sawara
Maguro kappa maki
Anago
Awabi
Finishing off with a nice bowl of aka-miso soup, lots of little fish meat bits inside.
And here’s their ala-carte menu for reference
寿司大 (Sushi Dai)
5-2-1 Tsukiji, Chuo-ku

That otoro, tai and aji sushi all need to be in my mouth now! :O
Sitting at the exact same place, being served by the same “signature” chef hahaha & eating the same sushi, well almost the same, but your photos are much better taken this time.

Hehe yah it felt like deja vu! Probably I’ll try like Sushi Bun next time.
