Michelin's anonymous inspector described Sushi Masuda as 'a pointed reminder not to judge a book by its cover.'
VANCOUVER — A five-seat sushi counter located inside another restaurant is the latest Vancouver eatery to receive a Michelin star.
"The plain, spare room is brought to life by the artfully simple, meticulous preparations of Chef Yoji Masuda, whose time spent in a top counter in Tokyo is amply apparent, though his own personality comes through," the inspector wrote of the eatery's omakase sushi course. There are, as of yet, no restaurants in the city with two stars — "excellent cooking, worth a detour" — or the maximum three stars — "exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey."
Earlier additions to the list include Japanese restaurant Sushi Hil, brother-sister-owned Vietnamese joint Anh and Chi and Mexican eatery Chupito.
