Hiro Sakai's fine dining restaurant works according to the omakase principle. This means that the chef decides what he serves you.
Master sushi chef Hiro Sakai is not only the chef of this restaurant at South Station, he also owns five restaurants in the greater Tokyo area. He has been specialising in Japanese cuisine for over 30 years, and because he has composed some very successful menus during this time, he cooks according to the omakase principle at The Sakai. In Japanese, this is a common term used by diners to order in a restaurant. Loosely translated, omakase means "I leave it to you".
Many restaurants in Japan work exclusively according to this principle, and The Sakai was one of the first in Germany. You will find the chef's menu on the menu, with two options for individual courses. The great thing about this is that the menus are excellent and you are not spoilt for choice.
