Bangkok, Thailand, October 27, 2023 / TRAVELINDEX / Starting in November 2023, Sukhothai Bangkok proudly presents the Sushi Kappo Takizawa Pop-Up – an exquisite traditional Japanese omakase experience from Chef Shumpei Takizawa. Known for his mastery of Japanese omakase cuisine, Chef Takizawa, with his passion for traditional Japanese cooking and his pursuit of perfection, promises to redefine the omakase experience in Bangkok.

Chef Takizawa, originally from Shizuoka, whose family specializes in producing dried fish products like katsuobushi for dashi, began his culinary journey in childhood. He honed his skills in the USA, Europe, and the UAE, constantly researching and perfecting various techniques to further develop his expertise. In 2013, he returned to Japan and dedicated himself to traditional edomae sushi in Michelin-starred restaurants in Hokkaido and Tokyo. In 2018, he took over the management of the Los Angeles branch, earning an impressive two Michelin stars in its first year. In 2020, he ventured to Bangkok, initially working as a consultant before finally opening his own omakase restaurant.

Chef Takizawa's omakase style seamlessly blends traditional edomae sushi with kappo dishes. Edomae sushi is characterized by its maturation time, marinating processes, and curing, while kappo dishes combine authentic Japanese cuisine with influences from other culinary traditions such as French and Chinese. Therefore, the quality of rice and dashi at Chef Takizawa's restaurant differs from that of other omakase restaurants.

To celebrate the opening of Takizawa's pop-up restaurant at The Sukhothai Bangkok, seating is limited to ensure an intimate and unforgettable dining experience. Guests are strongly encouraged to book in advance to secure their place at this culinary masterpiece.

Open daily for lunch and dinner. Lunch 2,900++ | Dinner 5,900++ per person
