Sumibiyaki Kappo Shirosaka

Near Tokyo's Akasaka Station, Shirosaka is a hidden gem, away from the city's bustle. The brainchild of renowned Japanese chef Hideki Ii, known for his innovative approach to charcoal-grilled cuisine.. Hideki Ii's journey began in 1976 in Tokyo and took him across the globe, honing his culinary skills. Notably, he served as the sous-chef at "Tetsuya's" in Sydney, which ranked fourth on the prestigious 50 Best list in 2004. After contributing his culinary expertise to the 35th G8 summit and a tenure as a consulate chef in New York, Hideki Ii realized his dream by opening Shirosaka.. At Shirosaka, the focus is on seasonal ingredients, and there's no traditional menu. Instead, guests experience the essence of "Omakase", entrusting the chef to curate a menu that reflects the changing seasons. The standout dish, Charcoal-Grilled Alfonsino Marinated with Kinome Miso, showcases Hideki Ii's culinary mastery.
