Aside from the masterful nigiri courses at Sushi Ichimura, many guests have been delighted and surprised by the delicate and superbly constructed appetizers prepared Kaiseki-style by Chef Manabu. Before working at Sushi Ichimura, Chef Manabu has worked at some of the most celebrated counters in New York, including Odo and Uchu. As a three-night only special offering celebrating the New Year, Chef Manabu is spreading his wings and presenting a Kaiseki meal like no other behind the same elegant cedar counter. Expect traditional Kaiseki techniques with seasonal ingredients like Japanese hairy crab, yellowtail from Himi, as well as courses inspired by Chef's hometown of Yamagata. Please note there is no nigiri served for this experience.

Our Chef’s Omakase Menu features approximately 20 courses consisting of a rotating selection of seasonal appetizers including chef Ichimura’s signature housemade mochi rice cracker filled with Hokkaido bafun uni and Kaviari caviar, followed by over 12 courses of delicately aged nigiri sushi and temaki. Each dish is thoughtfully served on rare antique Japanese lacquerware and one-of-a-kind serverware, including plateware handmade by Shiro Tsujimura, one of Japan’s most prominent contemporary ceramic artists and a living national treasure. The current price of the menu is $450 before taxes and gratuity.
