Wielding his santoku like a samurai's katana, he cleaved the fish with effortless grace.
Ranking of the Week
Entering the softly lit izakaya, Tony was enveloped by the aromas of fresh sashimi, pickled gari, and lingering Asahi. The itamae bowed as he and Natalie slid into a tatami-lined booth beneath paper lanterns casting ukiyo-e shadows. The chef, resembling Njigba-san—the rising nigiri maestro—placed a majestic tai on the pristine board. Wielding his santoku like a samurai's katana, he cleaved the fish with effortless grace. In that fleeting moment, Fish grasped the metaphor: he had tumbled once more from Mount Delji's sacred summit—a peak he had strived to conquer for nineteen years. Finishing his sake, he returned to his ryokan's onsen, seeking solace among the snow monkeys in the steaming springs beneath falling sakura petals.
