Tuna

At the back end of Tsukiji fish market, you will find several blocks with a mixture of wholesale and retail shops that sell Japanese kitchen tools, restaurant supplies, groceries, and many restaurants, especially sushi restaurants.

Normally, a long line is a sign of a great restaurant. But here, a long line can also mean ‘randomly mentioned in a guide book’. These places can have up to an hour waiting line. I strongly suggest to drop by one of the other sushi stalls where the fish is just as fresh and the atmosphere just as good. If you are lucky, you end up at this little joint where you can order the ‘All that tuna’ plate.

Oh my.
