"This meal was superb, sushi of the highest class."

"Chef Sawada runs this sushi shop, and beyond a delicious Ginza style sushi-ya, he is famous for another aspect of this culture. He is well-known for how he ages his tuna, and his pairing of flavours with different textures is impeccable."

"Although the price is not cheap, you do get what you pay for at Sawada and you will be guaranteed a fantastic and perhaps even life-changing sushi experience."

"I fully enjoyed my time here and the journey remains one to never forget as the charisma of the Chef, coupled with a sense of place and exceptional sourcing do suffice in explaining why Sawada is oftently regarded as one of world’s finest Sushi shops."
on Sushi
"It’s refreshingly crisp, successfully cleaning our palates in preparation for the second half of the meal."
on Maki
"Overall, it still sits among the best sushi meals I’ve ever had. There is no other sushi dining experience that feels quite as personal, exclusive, and warm."
on Sushi
"Piece after piece, I was floored by the quality of his produce. As if he has suppliers that even the other Sushi Masters of this trip are not aware of."
on Nigiri
"The quality of his fish is as good as it gets, and his sushi rice is excellent as well."

"I was beyond full at the moment, but chef Sawada came up with a bonus meal: a giant futomaki with numerous types of tunas (seriously, its diameter was about the size of a big mug cup). While I couldn’t obviously finish the piece in one bite, it was just so awesome that I savored every bite of it."
