A knife should never be chosen for you — you find the one whose weight and shape you love, and in time, it becomes part of your hand.

Matsuhiro

Matsuhiro (松尋) was founded 60 years ago in Fukakusa, Kyoto by Kodai Kitakura's grandfather as a sushi restaurant, evolving into Kyoto kaiseki-sushi under his father three decades later. In 2025, Kodai opened Kyoto Sushi Matsuhiro in Fushimi Inari, continuing the restaurant's tradition of saiku-zushi — sushi crafted into seasonal motifs like flowers and cranes.
