FOOD: At Fukuoka’s Ultra-minimal Sushi Bar
Local design studio Case-Real have reimagined a former dry cleaning shop in Fukuoka as a beautifully minimal sushi restaurant. Welcoming their first guests this summer, Takigawa Sushi occupies a tiny 20sq metres on the corner of a quiet intersection, sandwiched between a car park and a factory. But step behind the noren curtain and Takigawa’s unassuming façade reveals the city’s sleekest sushi bar. Constructed using local Ginko wood, the focal point of the stripped back space is a curved counter designed to mimic the shape of the building and arc of the pavement beyond. Tools and utensils are kept hidden, furniture is beautifully functional, and bare wood-clad walls rise to meet a raw clay ceiling. Yet despite its ultra-minimalism, Takigawa is a one-room restaurant oozing welcoming warmth – ring ahead to book your spot at the counter.
