Why Namaiki in Soho is Redefining the Sushi Experience
Namaiki isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a philosophy and a tribute to a specific time in Japanese history—the Edo period, an era that saw a blossoming of Japanese culture and gave birth to Edo-Mae sushi. It’s not about flashy fusion but about depth of flavour and simplicity. The chefs at Namaiki embrace this legacy by employing a variety of intricate techniques to enhance natural flavours and textures. Whether it’s the careful seasoning, drawing out of water, or ageing of fish, each technique is adjusted daily and tailored to the specific ingredients and seasons. What you get on your plate is not just food, it’s a delicately crafted experience that honours Japan’s rich cultural history.
