Sushi Fukuhara, 鮨 福原 (Tabelog 3.91) Kawasaki, Kanagawa

Sushi Fukuhara is tucked away in the quiet residential neighborhood of Kawasaki, currently one of the highest rated sushi shops in the southern suburbs of Tokyo.

Kombu/dry-aged Neta is a specialty here, the strong umami note from Shiromi and Akami pieces compliments well with the sharp Shari seasoned by red vinegar.

Lunch offers great value when compared to many of its peers in Tokyo with similar ratings, with nigiri only options starting at just 5500yen. In my recent visit, I went with the full lunch course which included 4 servings of Otsumami and 12 pieces of nigiris, bill came to around 13000yen.
