It had been a very long time since I last visited Tomii in Aoi Ku in Shizuoka City the other night and I had been wandering how well the establishment had fared all that time!

Well I noted a great improvement with the drinks, especially sake, with no less than 8 brews from Shizuoka Prefecture!

Hakuin Masamune Homarefuji Junmai by Takashima Brewery in Numazu City!

First of all the appetizers:
Oonigyu beef Corned bee at the back, Matsumae at the front left and Nikomori/Globefish skin jelly terrine!

A light o-tsukuri/sashimi plate!

Akagai/Blood arkshell!

Bachi maguro tuna, madai/true seabream and shimesaba/marinated mackerel!

Now, what’s all that seasoning for (grated garlic, chopped scallions and grated ginger)?

Can you guess?

Sakua/Basashi/Horsemeat sashimi!
A delicacy!

A Shizuoka treat for dessert!

Beautiful matcha creme brulee!
