Japanese cuisine is a representative of high-end dining in the domestic market due to its high requirements for ingredients. Wuhan is located in central China, where the food is all-inclusive, and there is also a lot of Japanese food, but most of them are in the form of "late-night canteens", and mid-to-high-end Japanese food is still in the minority.
Sushi is a representative of high-end Japanese cuisine in Wuhan, and the main store opened in Shanghai in 2012, and since then the store has expanded to Shenzhen, Hangzhou, Xiamen and other places. At the beginning of the store, Sushi Ichi attracted much attention for his cooperation with Sushi Ichi in Ginza, Tokyo, Japan, but later the two terminated the partnership due to internal problems. Because of the trademark protection applied for trademark protection in China, Sushi still uses a store logo similar to that of Japanese Sushiichi, so it has also been criticized by many copycats.
Even though the name of the store has been controversial because of whether it is authentic, it has to be said that the ingredients, production and environment of Sushi are among the best in Wuhan. The pronunciation of "Sushi" in Japanese is "Sushi", which means sushi in Japanese, and Sushi is also a Japanese restaurant specializing in sushi. Due to regional reasons, Wuhan Sushi is inferior to the Shanghai head office in terms of food transportation, but its ingredients and production still continue the standard of the head office. Fresh seafood is a scarce ingredient in inland cities, and many Japanese restaurants are shoddy or made with ordinary seafood, but in Sushi One, you can taste fresh tuna, arctic shellfish, sea urchin, crab meat, etc., which are not comparable to frozen salmon and arctic shellfish in ordinary stores. Seafood shipped by air ensures freshness and adds a lot of costs.
Sushi serves a set meal, the main food is not a la carte, only drinks and drinks can be ordered after arriving at the store. The business model of Wuhan Sushi is similar to that of the Shanghai main store, which is divided into two types: lunch set and dinner set, both of which need to be booked in advance. According to the consumption characteristics of Wuhan, the lunch set menu ranges from 280 yuan to 880 yuan, while the evening market has three sets of 1,000 yuan, 1,280 yuan and 1,680 yuan. The price of the set meal varies greatly, mainly due to the number of dishes in the set meal and the ingredients to be prepared. The higher the price, the richer the dishes and the rarer the ingredients will be.
Sushi Ichi has a wide variety of sashimi and fresh ingredients, and a variety of top-quality seafood ingredients are available according to the season. Tuna is an "aristocratic" ingredient in sashimi, and due to the complexity of its catching and preservation, it is difficult to taste it at a regular Japanese restaurant. The price of tuna varies depending on the part. Tuna is generally divided into large fat, medium fat and naked, among which large fat is the most fat belly fat of tuna, and it is also the most expensive part, the body is soft, the temperature of the entrance is close to room temperature, delicate and silky. Medium fat contains moderate fat, and the taste is between large fat and naked, so if you don't like too fatty taste, it is recommended to choose medium fat parts. Naked body, also known as red meat, is the least fatty and darkest part of the tuna, although it does not melt in the mouth like large fat and medium fat, but it is also much less greasy. In addition to the sashimi part, Sushi Ichi also has a sauce-grilled tuna chin, which can only be removed from each tuna, and the muscles are tough but the umami is rich.
In addition to the high-quality sashimi, Sushiichi's sushi, soups, dishes and other dishes are also based on standard high-end Japanese cuisine, and the rice and vinegar used in the sushi are imported from Japan, and the seasoning also restores the original taste of Japan, including wasabi is also freshly ground from the green sunflower in the store.
Wuhan Sushi is located in Wuhan Tiandi, the signboard and store are not conspicuous, quite like a small store in Kyoto. The interior is small and delicate, with all-wooden tables, chairs, and counters restoring the original appearance of a Japanese restaurant. Compared with the Shanghai and Hangzhou stores, Wuhan Sushi has fewer dining locations, with only two private rooms in the store, which can accommodate 14 guests at the same time, and all meals are seated in rows, and there is no separate private room setting. In both private rooms, chefs prepare dishes on the spot, and introduce the production process and eating methods of each dish, so that diners can not only taste authentic Japanese food, but also learn about Japanese food during the meal. Sushi Ichi's service is also meticulous in Japanese cuisine, from guiding diners to their seats to the end of the meal, the service staff will pay attention to the situation of each diner, introduce the dishes, deliver towels, add tea, and other details.
If you want to experience the essence of Japanese cuisine, Sushi Ichi is the first choice for Japanese cuisine. Since the restaurant is small and difficult to find during holidays and other times, it is recommended to make a reservation one day in advance and go to the restaurant at the agreed time.
