"Sushi is at the heart of Japanese culture. So, too, are the twenty master sushi shokunin featured in this book. There is no single word that adequately conveys the meaning of shokunin; while it is typically translated as 'craftsman' or 'artisan', these definitions fail to express the magnitude and breadth of the expansive nature of true shokunin...." So begins award-winning photographer and author Andrea Fazzari @tokyo_andrea_fazzari in her book, "SUSHI SHOKUNIN" (@assouline). Go to the website link in our profile for excerpts featuring three celebrated sushi shokunin from Kyushu, with Fazzari's alluring photography and storytelling.

This autumn, Higashiya has launched its new “Oriben” obento series. Starting with “Shin” in the first photo, each variety is sheer perfection in a box, packed with flavors and goodness that varies by season. “Gyo” in the second photo comes with an optional separate box of brown rice, or can be combined with the sticky steamed rice bundles “chimaki” or “osekihan” red rice (third photo). And do not let the minimalistic look of the “Noriben” (fourth photo) deceive you; delightful surprises await beneath the layer of fragrant #nori #seaweed and fluffy #tamagoyaki egg omelette. The refined packaging alone has a presence all its own, so beautifully characteristic of #Higashiya. Oriben #bento is available in limited quantities at Higashiya Ginza and Higashiya man in Marunouchi (“Shin” available only by reservation 5 days beforehand). #obento #washoku #chimaki #osekihan #japanesefoods #deliciousjapan #lovejapan #higashiyaginza #ginza #marunouchi #銀座 #丸の内 #折弁 #お弁当 #海苔弁 #ちまき #お赤飯 https://www.instagram.com/p/CHzxuLplj6i/?igshid=pwuhg54382oy
