==============
Daiku-machi Sushijin Hanare is a sushi restaurant housed in a private building and run by Izumi Kimura, an exceptional, self-taught sushi chef.
After a career as a businessperson, he opened his restaurant in 2000, driven by his passion for sushi.
The restaurant has been highly praised in numerous gourmet guides, including earning one Michelin star. Its greatest appeal lies in its unique style, born precisely from the absence of traditional apprenticeship.
The alternating presentation of appetizers and nigiri, along with inventive dishes that make full use of Toyama’s rich ingredients, continues to captivate guests.
Rice cooked in a traditional kamado pot and the restaurant’s own red vinegar create distinct flavors for each topping, offering a fresh surprise with every bite.
In a quiet space tucked away in Kanazawa’s downtown Katamachi district, sushi prepared under the guidance of a sommelier—paired with wine or champagne—creates a truly special evening.
This ever-evolving restaurant also offers a chance to experience Kimura’s philosophy as he works to preserve Toyama’s traditional trout sushi.
