As simple as it is, if a restaurant is good, we book again and again. This was our third visit since Yu-En’s grand opening in Oct last year. Their aged sushi is fascinating. The sushi rice is served warmer than many sushi restaurants to match the taste and texture of aged fish. Every time they have some surprising new seasonal dishes and new sake as well.

Ezoawabi, Hokkaido
Best part of the dish was the liver sauce. Not so bitter but full of the umami of abalone

Mikandai, Ehime, Fresh and 14-days aged
Sea bream that feeds on mandarin orange. First time to have both fresh and aged Mikandai to taste. The texture was totally different after wet aging, much more softer and spongy. The orange peel taste got even stronger than the fresh one. Love it
Murasaki Uni, Hokkaido
Compared to Bafun Uni, Murasaki Uni was less intense but the taste was more clean, sweet and delicate
Sayori, Chiba, 7 days aged
Never had such an intense Sayori! Still not too tender after aging

A rare seasonal salmon with smoky and hazelnut taste because of the magic of aging. Absolutely one of my favorite this time

Otoro, Aomori, 3 months aged
I personally prefer wild tuna than farmed tuna because I’m not a fan of fatty food. They use wild tuna that contains less fat but more intense tuna taste. This Otoro was not oily but had so much umami inside.
Chutoro, Aomori, 3 months aged and marinated in shoyu overnight
Their signature dish. Complex flavors like parma ham and blue cheese
Ankimo, Hokkaido
Very creamy and rich. I was already very full but still finished it
Fish Broth
Thick broth just like ramen soup!! Perfect for soothing the stomach after drinking sake
Service was great as always. Detailed multilingual explanations provided by the team. They only did one seating so we took our time to enjoy our meal slowly and finished 2 bottles of sake.
