Delicious kakinoha-sushi; don't eat the leaf!

I heard that it is famous for its persimmon leaf sushi. There are three types of sushi: 8 pieces of mackerel sushi, 10 pieces each of 5 pieces of mackerel and salmon, and 12 pieces of mackerel.I bought the 12 pieces of mackerel. According to the store clerk, the best time to eat it is from the night you buy it to the next day, so please store it at room temperature. The mackerel is seasoned with just the right amount of salt, and the vinegared rice isn't too sweet, so it's no wonder there's a long line.

I stopped by when I went to Kinpusenji Temple early in the morning. The kind proprietress taught me how to eat. I stored it at room temperature, and when I ate it the next day, I was able to know that it had a slightly ripe taste that I had never tasted before with persimmon leaf sushi. I will order it next time. I was satisfied with the service and taste.
