In Tokyo, there is a sushi restaurants called Kyubei (Kyubey), that is a massive five-story eatery. It resides in the fashionable Tokyo’s Ginza district, and has served fish to Japanese and Western power brokers for 72 years. This is a place where famous people get private rooms with a personal sushi chef slicing up 35 kinds of fish brought in daily from the Tsukiji fish market or directly ordered from all over Japan.

Both people from the Japanese elite and American celebrities like Steven Spielberg and Nicolas Cage (wohoo! More sushi celebrities) go here. Japans prime minister Shinzo Abe brought in the New Year’s holidays here this year with several politicians from his cabinet.
