Edomae Sushi is a well-known Japanese food chain brand from Beijing, and the Hangzhou store is a member of Edomae Sushi, with a total of three, these three branches opened in 2014, 2016 and 2017 respectively. It enjoys a high reputation in Hangzhou.
There are very few good sushi in Hangzhou, and Edozen can only barely reach the passing line. In terms of food preservation, the consistent practice of chain stores is adopted, which is streamlined and proper, but such a one-size-fits-all preservation method may not be able to take into account every fish and shrimp. It is not uncommon for the ingredients to be not fresh. Fortunately, the restaurant service is acceptable, and if the dishes presented are not fresh, the restaurant will communicate with the guests in time and replace the dishes. Foie gras sushi, which is regarded as the signature of the restaurant by many diners, is not a suitable ingredient pairing, and the greasy texture of foie gras may not be favored by all diners. Edomae Sushi offers an affordable set meal at lunch, and there is a wide variety of options. As for taste, preferences vary from person to person, so I won't go into detail here.
Most Japanese restaurants of the same type as Edozen usually thaw frozen seafood and place it in a refrigerator to keep it fresh at a low temperature and to show off the ingredients. High-end Japanese restaurants are accustomed to using wooden boxes to store processed seafood. In addition to the traditional factors, the wooden box has an excellent thermostatic effect, which can control the temperature in the box within a certain range, and keep the space dry and fresh, making it the best container for storing seafood. However, the use of wooden boxes for storage requires a high level of seafood processing for chefs, and the process is complicated and cumbersome. You can also see the difference between ordinary Japanese restaurants and high-end Japanese restaurants.
The three restaurants of Hangzhou Edomae Sushi are all franchised stores, and the operators are different, and the restaurant environment is also different, among which the Huanglong store has the best decoration and the largest space, which can meet the needs of small banquets and business. The recharge cards sold are common to all three stores. Diners should also be reminded that the Edomae membership card applied for in Beijing may not be able to be used in Hangzhou, so it is recommended to consult the store before using it.
