Watching Kanesaka work his magic is performance in itself

Sushi Kanesaka at 45 Park Lane, London

BACKGROUND This intimate Michelin-starred omakase restaurant is located in The Dorchester Collection's 45 Park Lane premises in Mayfair. The 13-seater restaurant opened in 2023 - the first opening outside of Asia Pacific for chef Shinji Kanesaka.

THE VENUE Sushi Kanesaka is discreetly hidden on the first floor. Behind a Japanese-inscribed noren linen curtain lies a nine-seater counter and an adjacent four-seater private room - both with a sushi chef.

Rooms feature bamboo accents, wooden Kumiko panels, ceramics aplenty and a counter crafted from a single piece of Japanese cedar wood.
