As the first and only international outpost from acclaimed Tokyo-based chef Masahiro Yoshitake, Shikon by Yoshitake at The Landmark Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong is a once-in-a-lifetime dining experience.
From the moment you glide through the sliding bamboo door, the sushi restaurant immerses you in a world of time-honored Japanese customs. You are surrounded by antique ceramics, delicate wood carvings and thatched bamboo ceilings — a beautiful, tranquil atmosphere that complements the culinary team’s approach to crafting meticulous, Edomae-style sushi.
Overseen by executive chef Yoshiharu Kakinuma, who trained with Yoshitake in Ginza before relocating to Hong Kong in 2012, the omakase sushi experience feels approachable yet formal, contemporary yet rooted in tradition. And with only three seatings a day — and eight seats at the hinoki-wood sushi counter, no less — this is easily one of the most exclusive dining spots in Hong Kong.
