Jikasei B

Jikasei B is the Bangkok offshoot of Jikasei, a members-only sushi speakeasy that chef Tiago Cardoso started in Barcelona. The Portuguese chef, who has spent around 15 years working with sushi in Europe and Japan, opened here on Sukhumvit 43 in 2024. The room is an eight-seat counter behind a discreet wooden door, and the restaurant is listed in the 2026 Michelin Guide Thailand.

The meal follows an Edomae progression, using seasonal fish flown in from Tokyo and Kanazawa and rice seasoned with three vinegars. Ankimo on a crisp rice-flour wafer is one of the dishes the Michelin inspectors picked out. The Lunch Omakase of 12 to 14 courses costs 3,800 baht (Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday), the Sushidokoro course of 14 to 16 courses 4,800 baht and the Jikasei B course of 16 to 20 courses 6,800 baht, all plus service and tax.

Cardoso speaks English at the counter, which suits visitors who want the techniques explained. Seats open on the 15th of each month for the following month via TableCheck, with deposits of 1,500 to 3,000 baht; children under 12 are not accepted.
