Sushi master Shinji Kanesaka is set to open a 13-seat omakese counter at 45 Park Lane next month, which will be the first outpost of his two Michelin-starred Tokyo restaurant, Sushi Kanesaka. It will share its name with its older sibling.
Opening on July 1 inside the 45 hotel, the restaurant will be divided into two; a nine-seat counter will form the majority of the seating, with room for four more in an adjacent private dining room. A menu of 18 courses is offered, priced at £420, which the Standard believes is the most expensive set menu in the country. Drinks pairings offered will include wine, beer and Japanese whiskie. Sake pairings are likewise offered, starting at £150 and rising to £220.
