Jiro Sukiyabashi

すきやばし二郎

Ginza 

90%

My favorite! Cooked clam! My brother felt that it was too strong for him. But for me, the sauce had an earthly muskiness, reminded me of pine nuts, morels and truffles, with the bounciness and supple texture of the clam, I was in bliss. 

Had to close my eyes to fully appreciate this god-like piece of art 

That juicy cooked prawn oh god get in my mouth 

This dish was a star, baby scallop! 

Maybe I read too much hundred acre wood but the scallop had a bounce and spring larger than Tigger :) freshest juiciest and most amazing scallop I ever had 

Jiro's famous anago sea eel, so so sweet and so so soft, I was in heaven 

Jiro's 20-year of perfection to reach the best tamago, I previously tried the one in Narisawa NYC, this tamago was as sweet as creme brûlée, perfect balance between sweet and savory 

Sweetest musk melon I ever ate in my life
