New sushi restaurant is open in Tsukiji area in this September. The restaurant’s name is Sushi Keita (鮨 桂太). It was still new.

Mr. Keita who is a chef of this Sushi Keita trained at Sushi Taichi in ginza and then he started his business at this Tsukiji. They are open at dinner time mainly, but they are open at lunchtime on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays only. They offer inexpensive lunch course. So you can try their sushi with easily.

There’re two lunch course. 5000 yen course have 11 sushi. and 10000 yen course have 20 sushi. There’s L-shaped counter table surrounding the kitchen only. The lady who serve drinks is his wife.

Because we wanted to eat much sushi, we reserved 10000 yen course in advance. I was anxious about the 20 pieces of sushi because I’m small eater, but I could eat them up easily because his sushi is not large.

At first I had green tea. Not Japanese sake. But I felt like drinking Japanese sake all the same.
They showed the photo of Japanese sake in line and I chose one. Basically I have green tea when I eat sushi, but their sushi is suitable for Japanese sake.

First of all, marinated lean meat of tuna was served. Their sushi is rather small. It’s easy to eat for ladies.

Young gizzard shad. It was vinegared strongly, but it was good.
