The only shop in Takayama Old Town to have a snaking queue is this shop selling Hida beef sushi. From left to right: lightly seared and topped with charcoal salt, lightly seared and topped with soy glaze and ginger and spring onion, and gunkan style topped with a raw quail egg. Each piece had its own distinct taste, and the condiments each complemented the delicate yet rich Hida Beef. The beef was sooooo tender and barely required chewing. Seriously good value (900 yen for this Set C). The sushi is handed to you on a rice cracker plate that is 100% edible and also very yummy. Limited seating in the shop next door, you have to order, grab and go. All part of the charm.
