Skewers
Two pieces. Thigh, charcoal-grilled with leek between each cube. Order it salt unless you've already got something sweet on the table.
Rice & noodle
Sea bream sashimi over warm rice, sesame, nori, wasabi. Hot dashi poured over at the table.
Drinks
Cloudy, slightly sparkling, low alcohol. Poured cold from a stoneware jar. By the cup or carafe.
Dessert
Set custard, properly bitter matcha on top, a spoon of azuki. The night's only sweet, and the chef's wife will know if you didn't finish it.
House style
One menu, one room, one chef. We don’t take reservations except on weekends, and we don’t have a phone. If we’re full when you arrive, the bar across the street is good and we’ll fetch you when a stool opens up.
