Restaurant sells sushi pieces the size of rice grains

Japan's Sushiya no Nohachi in Tokyo is famous for making the world's smallest sushi - the size of a grain of rice.

Located in Asakusa, a quiet area of ​​Tokyo, Sushia no Nohachi is the place to go if you want to try the world's smallest sushi. Each sushi piece is as small as a grain of rice, topped with a layer of toppings and wrapped in an equally small piece of nori (dried seaweed). Diners can fit dozens of these sushi pieces along their index finger without fear of them falling off.

"Every piece of sushi is perfect, showing the patience of the chefs who make them," commented one diner.

These sushi pieces are the work of chef Hironori Ikeno. He came up with the idea of ​​making the world's smallest sushi in 2002, when a customer asked him how small he could make the sushi. Hironori replied "as small as a grain of rice" and completed the piece to prove it. Over the years, the restaurant has become famous, attracting diners from all over the world thanks to this smallest sushi.

The chef said that despite its small size, it takes a lot of time and effort to create the dish. The chef must be highly focused and skillful because it requires precision when putting together the very small food items. Therefore, the restaurant also limits the number of sales of this type of sushi, no more than five times a day. However, the restaurant also makes exceptions when international guests visit just to experience the world's smallest sushi.

"A Swedish tourist literally cried tears of joy when he saw our sushi," Hironoki said. The world's smallest sushi plate is served free with the purchase of a regular-sized dish costing $50.
