The Revealing Soy Dish

When you first glance at the empty dish on the left, its shape may not be immediately apparent. However, when you pour soy sauce into the small dish, an image of the Itsukushima Shrine materializes. This is a floating shrine located in Japan, belonging to the Shinto religion, and designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This dish is specifically designed for serving soy sauce in Japanese restaurants. The image of the shrine remains concealed until the soy sauce is poured in, making it a unique and surprising presentation. So, patrons who prefer their sushi without sauce miss out on this special depiction of the holy shrine.
