Akashi, Hyogo Prefecture: Sushi Restaurant Discount Coupon

If you want to enjoy sushi properly,
Hyogo Prefecture, Akashi City

Sushi is a representative food of Japan and can be called synonymous with Japanese cuisine. It consistently ranks high in the list of foods that foreigners visiting Japan want to eat. Nigirizushi (hand-pressed sushi) is representative, but Japan has various types of sushi such as Inarizushi (fried tofu sushi), Oshizushi (pressed sushi), and Barazushi (sushi topped with fish, fried eggs, and seasoned vegetables).

Among them, Akashi City in Hyogo Prefecture is located in the southern part of Hyogo Prefecture, very close to Awaji Island, and faces the Seto Inland Sea in the east-west direction, so it has been famous as a thriving fishing area since ancient times. In Akashi, with the desire to break the image of sushi as 'high-end and difficult to approach' that Japanese people and overseas tourists have, we created a coupon called 'Exceptional Skill (技の逸品)'.
