  • Endo at the RotundaWhite City

    “Endo has had wood imported from Japan that he used for the counter and he even brings in water from Japan to make sure the rice is cooked perfectly. It's a tiny place that does just 20 covers a day and the prices are very punchy, but it's worth every penny. He stands in the middle of the counter and personally hands you each piece of sushi so you eat it at the exact right time.”
