< Refreshed Store Layout! Toward a Sushi Experience for All Five Senses >
This is the first full renovation for "Revolving Sushi Maruchu Chubu International Airport Branch" in about 20 years since the airport opened! In this renewal, to strengthen communication with inbound customers ahead of the international tournament in September 2026, the customer seating was placed in the center to enhance the live atmosphere and allow guests to enjoy watching the chefs prepare the sushi up close.
Furthermore, sofa seats for two or three people have been added to the counter, creating a space that is also easy for families to use. The variety and number of fish types have also been increased compared to before the renewal, transforming it into a restaurant that offers a "sushi experience for all five senses."
< First-ever Spectacular "Tuna Cutting Show"! >
With this renewal, it has been decided that the spectacular "Tuna Cutting Show" will be held regularly!
On the day of the reopening, the "Tuna Cutting Show" was immediately performed for the first time. Amidst the powerful rhythm of taiko drums, a 56.5 kg Kindai tuna, glistening with fat, made a grand entrance, and all eyes in the venue were instantly fixed on it. When the staff carried the tuna and paraded through the restaurant, applause and cheers erupted as if it were a festival, and excitement filled the air!
In the blink of an eye, the giant tuna was skillfully carved, and the freshly cut pieces were immediately made into sushi and served to the customers. Both adults and children were thrilled with the performance and the taste of the fresh tuna. After this event, many customers were seen taking commemorative photos with the tuna's head, which was displayed in the restaurant. This performance, offering both visual and gustatory pleasure, became a memorable experience for those departing on or returning from their journeys.
