The conveyor-belt sushi chain Nigiri no Tokube (にぎりの徳兵衛) is expanding its "Domestic Fresh Bluefin Tuna Dismantling Show" (国産生本まぐろ解体ショー), which until now has been held at some stores, to its directly operated stores from November. The show will be held on the second Saturday of every month. As a special event in November, it will be held on two Saturdays, November 14 and November 21.
Saturday Fresh Fish Dismantling Show Continues
The "Fresh Fish Dismantling Show" (鮮魚解体ショー), held on Saturdays, also continues. Skilled craftspeople break down fish with practiced ease in front of customers, so guests can enjoy the freshness and flavor that come right after the fish is cut.
After the dismantling shows end, a rock-paper-scissors tournament is held, with prizes such as rare tuna cuts and nigiri made from the freshly dismantled fish. The live events have been well received by a wide range of customers, including families. Nigiri no Tokube plans to keep holding them regularly as a hands-on experience that lets visitors enjoy the craftspeople's skill and seasonal flavors.
