A chance to learn about the sushi culture of Tokyo from the Edo period, including how to prepare fish, shari (rice) and the history of sake, Master Chef Musashi gives a glimpse into his exquisite work. Translated as 'I leave it to you', Omakase gives the chef creative freedom to choose the menu for his guests which includes a sushi course comprising of eight tsumami (appetisers) and 10 nigiri. The menu changes each day, depending on the seasonality of the ingredients caught that day.
