■Ginza Bashodo Warabi Mochi

銀座芭蕉堂　わらび餅(抹茶)

Ginza Bashodo Warabimochi (Matcha)

Founded in Osaka in 1868, Ginza Bashodoh uses carefully selected ingredients and the traditional method of "open-flame cooking in a copper cauldron," passed down through generations. This results in a warabimochi with a firm texture, yet a smooth and pleasant mouthfeel.

At Akasaka Sushi Shino, the warabimochi is freshly sliced justbefore serving and garnished with matcha kinako, a blend of Japanese Tanbablack soybean flour and matcha green tea.

■Summer Limited Edition Sake

夏の食材に合う日本酒をご用意

Sake that goes well with summer foods

From left to right: "Oze no Yukidoke" (Gunma Prefecture), a refreshing sake with a light, fruity flavor.

Next is "Tenmei 'Sarasara Junmai'" (Fukushima Prefecture), a refreshing and light Junmai sake that sparkles like fireworks in the summer night sky, bringing a flutter to your heart. With its low alcohol content, it’s easy to drink and has a clean, crisp finish that is especially refreshing on hot days.

Lastly, "Kokuryu Shizuku" (Fukui Prefecture), known for its elegant, delicate aroma and refined taste.

The selection of sake changes regularly.

■Introducing Two Seasonal Ingredients

At Sushi Shino, we carefully select the finest seasonal ingredients. Our evening omakase course (starting at ¥20,000) includes a variety of snacks, allowing you to enjoy the best of the season’s offerings.

1.Summer-Only Sea Urchin with Shells

Every morning, we source fresh sea urchins with shells from the market, which are then carefully peeled by hand at the restaurant. We never use alum, so you can savor the pure, fresh, and creamy flavor of the sea urchin. The origin of the sea urchins changes daily, with varieties from Hokkaido and Sanriku available.

2. Abalone from Chiba Prefecture

We use large abalones weighing 500 grams, sourced from Chiba Prefecture.The abalone is served steamed, with its liver used as a sauce, which is thenmixed with rice to create a resort-style dish. The rich umami of the abalone isfully showcased in this exquisite creation.

■Shari (sushi rice)

Shari (sushi rice)

The rice is made from aged Hokkaido "Nanatsuboshi" rice, whichhas low moisture and stickiness. It is blended with three types of red vinegarto achieve the chef's ideal of rice that melts in the mouth, resulting in awell-balanced shari that complements today's ingredients.

■A Refined and Elegant Space

Upon stepping into the restaurant, you are greeted by the dignified hinoki counter and traditional jurakukabe walls, which quietly enhance the atmosphere and evoke the warmth of a sukiya-style building.

Inside the restaurant

When seated, the solid hinoki counter offers a refined texture and a faint aroma of hinoki, while the comfortable distance between you and the chef across the counter heightens your anticipation for the course to come.
