Sushi Anaba

The historical gem that is Nordhavn’s old Customs House was painstakingly deconstructed in 2019, with each limestone block numbered, before 2024 saw it lovingly reassembled again in its same 1916 design. Now home to 15-seater Sushi Anaba, it combines Danish tradition with a Japanese aesthetic, the centrepiece of which is a beautiful Douglas Fir counter. Run by a Dane who trained as a sushi apprentice in Tokyo, the Edomae-style nigiri and otsumami demonstrate incredible attention to detail, from the three-vinegar-seasoned rice from Niigata served at body temperature to the sumiyaki (flan) cooked in a cast-iron mould over charcoal.
