$220 Sushi Dinner in Tokyo - The Master of Fermented Sushi

Visiting Yorozu (1 Star Michelin) in Tokyo to try aged Sushi Omakase and have a few glasses of Sake. The Michelin Guide writes: The scent of red vinegar drifts through the air. Akira Shirayama prepares vinegared rice before our eyes, as if to say ‘this is the star of the show’. The ingredient he’s pairing with his vinegared rice, made with mature red vinegar, is rested fish. Each is matured with its own enzymes, dried and pickled in salt, resulting in rich flavours.
Costs: 63,000 Yen / 443 USD (2 people)
Restaurant name: 熟成鮨 万

I love the hushed tones and gentle background chatter in these Japanese restaurants. It's calming and reverential. 😊

He wasn't in any hurry

[@SheyD78]

I love that little stand he has for the pot lid. Never encountered one before but it's so simple and obvious I wonder why.

[@GMoore461]

The most calming, relaxing sushi experience ive ever seen. And then you have maybe the most annoying laugh in Japan sitting 2 chairs down lolol

[@curly6619]

I'm too loud to be in restaurants this quiet. Looks amazing I am so jealous of your life 😅

I also want to thank you for the detailed subtitle. I enjoy making sushi at home a lot and had been a shari fanatic. I always look out for shari making footage from the sushi videos and you can learn a lot from time to time. From this video, I can sort of guessing the vinegar and cooked rice ratio. If you see closely, the rice before vinegar are cooked quite dry. As a Cantonese, the way he handles cooking seafood (ie the gentle steam) is great. Overall, I'm slowly watching this video (with the mind of not wanting to finish it so quickly LOL) and had been learning a lot. Again, much appreciate your works here.

Amazing content as always. It's a nice break from teppanyaki, and you're able to see more of the fantastic Japanese food culture.

I salute you sir ! It is visual aesthetic carnage but not in the common sense - the stillness of you and your role, the focus and pride of the sushi artist, the obscure ambient tapestry of the other people, chatting and laughing in a way that would make on consider if they were giddy/under the influence/aroused/perverse and the amazingly lit video of the streets outside which leads me to think of Michael Mann. Bravo!

Watching this chef is like watching a Zen master performing his activity. Each and every action is so graceful, so meditative.

[@thomascurran6186]

I love the quiet ambiance they let the food communicate

[@beanieduchet2928]

Your videos are more than digitalized art, to me, they are meditations. Thank you.

[@cjd1467]

Thank you for the chef's narrative! It made it much easier for me to follow along in your video.👍

[@mikechoi1577]

You can just tell this guy is a Sushi Master! ❤
