Concept :

Yakatabune are traditional restaurant boats that trace their history back to the Heian Period (794- 1185). Many courses are served on a traditional yakatabune, typically accompanied with freshly fried tempura. This classic dining experience is being reimagined at Sushi Origami.

Sushi Origami offers the finest Edomae-style sushi on a yakatabune, supervised by the popular Sushi Murayama, a Michelin-starred restaurant in Ginza. Sushi Origami combines the world of Daisaku Murayama’s gastronomy and the elegant view of Tokyo Bay to create a unique dining experience – a perfect yakatabune to enjoy authentic Edomae sushi on the water.

Key Points :

The black-lacquered yakatabune docks right in front of Tennozu Isle Station. Not unlike a traditional sushi restaurant, you can watch the chef arrange the ingredients and assemble the sushi right in front of your eyes. The restaurant uses quality Pacific bluefin tuna as well as fresh seafood from Ishishi, an 80-year-old wholesaler. Beautiful views of iconic landmarks in Tokyo are also visible from the boat, such as the Rainbow Bridge, the Tokyo Skytree or Tokyo Tower. Diners are encouraged to step onto the deck of the ship and take photos of these landmarks framed cherry blossoms that bloom along the Sumida River in the spring.

Recommended Dishes :

Courses offered include the Sushi Omakase Course (Lunch: ¥25,000, Dinner: ¥38,000 with a ¥5,000 boarding fee). Seasonal ingredients are carefully selected to craft dishes accompanied by limited edition sake and Champagne. Sushi Origami is a creative, unique experience where you can enjoy sushi on a houseboat. It will likely become a new landmark in Tokyo – I highly recommend this yakatabune for a memorable meal with family or friends.
