I can't believe it's been a year since I've been back at Nakazawa. After having mastered the skill of clicking the reservation button at the stroke of midnight I safely secured a spot once again. This time, I sat in the corner near the window; although my view was not the best, I was served first. This gave me more time to digest before the next piece. I must say, Nakazawa has been consistent with the quality and I was once again impressed. It is still some of the best sushi I've ever had. My favorite pieces include the scallop with yuzu pepper, cuttle fish with shiso, hand piece, and tamago. You can't go wrong with the tuna set.
My top sushi spot still remains Sushi Azabu and Nakazawa. Despite the absurdity in getting a reservation here, I personally think it is worth the hype. I recommend saying that it is your birthday to try and get a seat in the middle.
