Highlights
  • Hitoiki - Are you familiar with “Funasushi”? Funasushi is considered the original form of “Sushi” in Japan, originating from Shiga Prefecture as an ancient preserved fermented food.
    We offer 3 varieties of Funasushi paired with the local sake “Shichihonyari”.
    Please note that Funasushi is a fermented food with a strong sour taste, similar to blue cheese.
    If you enjoy cheese, umeboshi, raw fish, sake, fermented foods, or local cultural dishes, you might want to try Funasushi. However, if these are not to your taste, we do not recommend it.
