Among Our Diverse Sushi Experience, Today’s Focus Is Hotate
A Sushi Experience with Many Expressions at Pavillon Yuasa
At Pavillon Yuasa, the sushi experience is never limited to a single expression.Seasonal fish, subtle textures, and precise movements come together at the counter, where each piece is shaped by a Japanese chef and tells its own story.
Among this variety, we occasionally choose to highlight one ingredient.This time, our focus is on Hotate (scallop).
Today’s Focus: Hotate
Delicate and gently sweet, hotate is appreciated for its purity and balance.In the photos, its translucent, pearlescent flesh reflects exceptional freshness.Carefully selected, it is prepared using traditional Japanese techniques, always with respect for the ingredient.
The cut is deliberate, designed to preserve the natural texture and bring out the refined sweetness of the scallop.One thoughtful detail among many, within a menu that continues to evolve.
At the Counter, Each Sushi Finds Its Balance
At the moment of nigiri, the Japanese chef adjusts every element:the temperature of the rice, the pressure of the hand, the rhythm of the movement.Hotate, like every other piece on the menu, is finished according to its condition and the moment.
Watching this process unfold at the counter is part of the experience itself.Each sushi is prepared in front of you, in a quiet dialogue between chef, ingredient, and guest.
An Experience Shaped by the Moment
To preserve this precision and closeness, our sushi menu is offered exclusively by reservation at the counter.Each visit brings a different discovery, guided by the seasons and the chef’s inspiration.
Today, hotate.Tomorrow, another expression of sushi.
