Summer Residency at Sushi Ichimura
Chef Takashi Taniguchi from Kyoto’s Sushi Saeki

TUESDAY, AUGUST 27-29, 2024

Sushi Ichimura is pleased to welcome Chef Taniguchi from the acclaimed Sushi Saeki from Kyoto for a 3-day residency this August.

Sushi Saeki started in Osaka 15 years ago, and was ranked the #1 sushi restaurant in Kansai on Tabelog and received two Michelin stars. Sushi Saeki Kyoto opened in its current location in 2022, featuring a spotless cypress counter overlooking an ornate Japanese garden.

Chef Taniguchi started his career training as a sushi chef 29 years ago, and has worked at various top sushi-yas in the Kansai region. Chef Taniguchi is not only known for his exceptionally refined and hyper-seasonal cuisine, but also his welcoming and lively personality.

Chef Taniguchi’s cuisine takes advantage of local “Kyo-Yasai” (Kyoto vegetables), combining traditional sushi traditions with exceptional produce from the region.

Join us and experience the magic of Kyoto in New York this summer.
