about us
Temaki Togo celebrates the elegant simplicity of personalized sushi handrolls with meticulously crafted boxes filled with the finest ingredients. Each element is sourced from distinguished suppliers and presented at optimal condition - crispy, first harvest nori from Japan’s revered Ariake Sea; premium short grain hoshikari rice at perfect room temperature; pristine, sashimi grade fish cut “temaki style”; and seasonal vegetables selected at the farmer’s market.
Opening your bento box reveals a canvas of premium ingredients, beautifully arranged and ready for you —the artisan— to craft your own hand rolls to your exact specifications. You choose your fish, your vegetables, your sauces, and toppings. Each roll (and each bite) becomes an expression of your taste, your mood, your cravings, your artistry, or even your personality.
This is temaki as it was meant to be enjoyed—fresh, immediate, and entirely your own.
A Brief History of Temaki
Temaki, or “hand roll” sushi, became popular in Japan in the mid-20th century as a way for families to share a meal that was both simple and meaningful. It wasn’t just about convenience — it was about gathering around the table, assembling each roll by hand, and enjoying the moment together. It turned sushi into a shared experience, grounded in tradition and everyday life.
