The Miyajima hera. A traditional Japanese tool, ma The Miyajima hera. A traditional Japanese tool, made and passed down in Miyajima, Hiroshima,
used to cut and shape sushi rice.  For over 45 years in Toronto,
Chef Kaji has built his craft,
and that time shows in every movement.  Sharigiri is not just a technique.
It is a mindset —
to never waste a single grain of rice.  It is also about choosing the right tool,
and using it with care, day after day.  Through his work,
Chef Kaji quietly teaches the next generation
the art of sharigiri,
and the importance of respecting tools.  Tools and skills,
are shaped by time.

The January course appetizers were so good. I was The January course appetizers were so good.
I was impressed from the very first bite.  Omakase appetizers were a beautiful start.
Silky sesame tofu, gently simmered Wagyu Yoshino-ni, crab & spinach ohitashi, and a delicate sake-kasu mousse—each bite felt quietly refined.  Then came the buri shabu.
A quick swish of Japanese amberjack (buri) in hot dashi turns it silky, with rich fat melting into gentle sweetness and umami.
With aromatics, I immediately wanted the next bite.  おまかせ前菜から、もう満足。
胡麻豆腐、和牛吉野煮、蟹のお浸し、酒粕ムースが静かに旨い。鰤しゃぶは出汁にさっと。脂がほどけ、とろける。
薬味で整う、冬のごちそう。

We enjoyed an unforgettable omakase at the counter We enjoyed an unforgettable omakase at the counter at Sushi Kaji.With 45 years of craftsmanship, Chef Kaji’s calm rhythm and precise movements are part of the experience.  Osaka-style sushi shines through gently sweet rice, bold toppings, and rich soy sauce.
We started with appetizers, then enjoyed Wagyu and sashimi, finished with cha-soba, and ended with dessert—each dish beautifully supporting the sushi.

The day opened with taiko, kagami-biraki, shishimai, and mochi pounding, followed by prefectural showcases by local kenjinkai and a wide spread of Japanese sake, food, bento, desserts, and Japanese tea.
From young children to seniors—Japanese and Canadians alike—came together to experience Japan’s traditions.

So we made a special: ozoni udon in white miso, with a gentle hint of yuzu.  We asked our head chef, Ken, to take the first bite.

JAPAN TRAVEL NEWS - 「New York Times Names Nagasaki JAPAN TRAVEL NEWS - 「New York Times Names Nagasaki and Okinawa Among “52 Places to Go in 2026”」  The New York Times has selected Nagasaki and Okinawa for its annual list of “52 Places to Go in 2026.”
Nagasaki was ranked 17th, while Okinawa placed 46th on this year’s list.  The newspaper noted that Nagasaki offers a compelling reason to visit “at a time when the threat of nuclear proliferation is spreading across the world,” highlighting the city’s historical significance and its continued message of peace.  Okinawa was recognized for the anticipated completion of the reconstruction of Shuri Castle, whose main hall was destroyed in a fire in 2019. The restoration is scheduled to be completed this autumn, marking a major milestone for the region’s cultural heritage.

The recent news of Japanese sushi chain Sushizanma The recent news of Japanese sushi chain Sushizanmai paying a record 510 million yen (approximately $3.2 million) for a 243-kg (536-pound) bluefin tuna at the New Year auction at Tokyo’s Toyosu Market has drawn global attention.  What may come as a surprise to many, however, is that tuna of comparable size and weight can also be found here in Toronto.
At Taro’s Fish, whole Canadian wild bluefin tuna—sometimes reaching similar proportions—are sourced and purchased on a regular basis, not as a headline event, but as part of an ongoing commitment to quality and craftsmanship.— Editorial Report

used to cut and shape sushi rice.  For over 45 years in Toronto,
Chef Kaji has built his craft,
and that time shows in every movement.  Sharigiri is not just a technique.
It is a mindset —
to never waste a single grain of rice.  It is also about choosing the right tool,
and using it with care, day after day.  Through his work,
Chef Kaji quietly teaches the next generation
the art of sharigiri,
and the importance of respecting tools.  Tools and skills,
are shaped by time.

宮島のヘラ。広島県・宮島で受け継がれてきた、日本の伝統工芸の道具で、シャリを切る。  トロントで45年以上。加地さんが積み重ねてきた時間が、
その一つひとつの所作に表れる。  シャリきりは、技法だけではない。米一粒まで無駄にしないという心構えと、そのために選ばれ、使い続けられてきた道具がある。  加地さんは、その姿勢とともに、シャリきりの技、そして道具の大切さを、若い世代へと静かに伝えていく。  道具も、技も、
時間が育てる。

The January course appetizers were so good. I was The January course appetizers were so good.
I was impressed from the very first bite.  Omakase appetizers were a beautiful start.
Silky sesame tofu, gently simmered Wagyu Yoshino-ni, crab & spinach ohitashi, and a delicate sake-kasu mousse—each bite felt quietly refined.  Then came the buri shabu.
A quick swish of Japanese amberjack (buri) in hot dashi turns it silky, with rich fat melting into gentle sweetness and umami.
With aromatics, I immediately wanted the next bite.  おまかせ前菜から、もう満足。
胡麻豆腐、和牛吉野煮、蟹のお浸し、酒粕ムースが静かに旨い。鰤しゃぶは出汁にさっと。脂がほどけ、とろける。
薬味で整う、冬のごちそう。

We enjoyed an unforgettable omakase at the counter We enjoyed an unforgettable omakase at the counter at Sushi Kaji.With 45 years of craftsmanship, Chef Kaji’s calm rhythm and precise movements are part of the experience.  Osaka-style sushi shines through gently sweet rice, bold toppings, and rich soy sauce.
We started with appetizers, then enjoyed Wagyu and sashimi, finished with cha-soba, and ended with dessert—each dish beautifully supporting the sushi.

鮨職人45年、加地さんの所作が魅せる時間。
鮨加地のカウンターで味わう大阪鮨のおまかせ。
シャリの甘さとトッピング、そして醤油の厚みが特徴だ。
カウンターで魅せる加地さんの手仕事と所作のリズムも最高だ。前菜で始まり、和牛や刺身、そして茶蕎麦で締め、甘味で潤う、握りの前後を支える一品にも注目したい。
