Watch Sushi being Made by a Pro Right in Front of Your Eyes

[@jw427]

After 9 trips to Japan, the thing I love about Japanese culture is the care, attention to detail, and the ability to raise any activity to an art form, from taking a bath to dining on sushi. I miss the people from the land of the rising sun. I hope to some day visit again.

[@gordonlekfors2708]

yea, the destroyed eco systems, pollution, and endangered species left in the wake of this exquisite food tradition. the care and attention to detail in butchering whales, sharks, and dolphins to extinction.

[@UltraInstinctB4rd0ck]

The sushi was so beautifully prepared I shed some tears looking at it and if I had the opportunity I would love to try this place one day as something to scratch off my bucket list

16:15 Maidenhair tree...also a gingko tree, is certainly a softer wood...similar to some harder pine species (for those of you here in the U.S.)...with a hardness of about 3300N. Here in the U.S. people all want hardwood cutting boards that are twice as hard as that because they don't realize how bad it is for their knives. They just want what LOOKS good and don't really care too much about what actually WORKS well.

[@LetsaskShogo]

That's really interesting...!😮

[@vinnyrivera485]

The hands of the Master Sushi Chef while making the nigiri had a rhythm and the technique. Everything has a purpose.

[@jamesquinton29]

I love how sushi is just as much an art as it is a cuisine.

[@Jungletraveler00_12]

Watching the sushi preparation is awesome, it's all so well put together with precision.

[@gordonlekfors2708]

yea, almost makes u wanna forget that it all comes from an unsustainable industry completely destroying eco systems and polluting the oceans, not to mention the use of endangered species of fish.

[@Jungletraveler00_12]

@@gordonlekfors2708 That's why I prefer sushi without fish

What everyone wants to know, of course, is did you hold your hand 3.2 inches up from the edge at a 48º angle when you flipped open the _noren?_

[@harshybrown]

the chef makes it took sooo easy to do onigiri omg

[@roguenorton2309]

This is so interesting! The sushi chef is SUCH an artist!

[@trkimura]

Honestly, the hidden gem experience series are my favourite videos! I really feel like I get an idea of the experience and it teaches me about the best authentic experiences available in Kyoto. I hope viewership increases for these videos because it’s one of the reasons I love the channel!❤️❤️❤️

[@angelachouinard4581]

This was such a wonderful video. I love sushi but I usually wind up dining alone because no one else around me is interested. Also, this chef really elevated his sushi to the highest level and watching Japanese people experience his creations together made me feel like I was back in Japan. Uni is one of my favorites and I will dream of having uni sushi like the one you had.

[@kitcutting]

With the preparation style and the intense emphasis on proper etiquette, no wonder Japanese cuisine is listed as one of the Five Great Cuisines. It really is like the Eastern Hemisphere’s version of haute cuisine.

[@WhyTrashEarth]

Shogo you always have the FRESHEST and most DELICIOUS Japan content on KZbin!

[@Tyrless]

I like the calming atmosphere the whole experience has Anybody who visits is sure to have a wonderful time eating at said restaurant

I’m sorry if I’m missing something here but it something your saying is just a bit off for me here

[@johnNJ4024]

I would absolutely love to watch the process of how the sushi chef made the egg dish to make the egg cube. That would be a special treat to know how to make it at home... or at least try to make it at home. Thank you Shogo for such a lovely treat!!!

[@Zero-ry2rc]

That food and restaurant look absolutely divine.

Sushi is really delicious and I love sushi and onigiri rice balls so much! I always make some at home and seeing how professionals make sushi is really amazing and so tasty! Thank you so much for a great video Shogo!

[@alessandrorinaldi842]

The way Shogo says: " exactly" in enbedded in my heart

[@Nadeli0]

Wish I had the money to go to Japan, I don't know much about the language, but I know plenty about the culture from just watching Shogo. I'm currently learning Japanese, and once I do, watch out Japan! I'm coming for you! :D

[@lowlife_nolife6047]

The amount of detail in your washoku cuisine is just... A lot. Kind of makes me wonder whether you all made this up/Invented it out of boredom or out of artistic sophistry. Come to India if you can Shogo - san. Will treat you to some dishes here. Though I guess you Japanese people might be weirded out by our... closeness.

[@harshybrown]

my mouth is watering at this video ahhhhh

[@teakara]

same here 🥲✨

[@gutted3638]

I love this. I just love the Japanese culture, so much thought and attention to detail go into things...the eating experience...everything is done perfectly with such care and effort. The surroundings are comfortable, immaculately clean, relaxing. The food is made and presented like fine art, portion sizes are perfect, everything is presented and timed just right. Truly a feast for the senses. Love the look of that ark shell. Like a bowtie!

[@Katsurenjo15]

Ok I'll admit it, I'm jealous. Coming back to Japan ASAP.

Thank You for always sharing your experiences with us . Here in Maryland we are able to go fishing in the Chesapeake Bay for Rock fish , which is also known as Stripped Bass . I really envy you and your family and friends . Thanks again for sharing and I hope you are doing well and staying healthy .

Watching the prep work shows the true artisan and craftsman of the servers. Impressive 👍

[@themunchieman5696]

Wow that looked so delicious, idk why but the rice ball looked the most appealing.

[@Br0ns0n]

I found this because I started listening to your podcast on spotify. Please link promote them more on your KZbin channel episodes. I see missed opportunities to put "in screen" links on videos that have a connection. I know these type of videos are much more work but these outings are enchanting. All the best to you and your team.

[@theperceptor9287]

Yes definitely different than any sushi I've eaten in America.

Hey, it's a thing with this video, this seems like the type of place, but you make reservations, within a month or a week in advance, but most likely, a month in advance and it's very expensive.

I give it a 10/10

[@jazi-san4563]

I like the small amount of rice used.

[@Acaykath]

It looks so delicious, but it also looks so expensive. I can only imagine how many thousands of yen that meal must have cost.

[@thomasmountcastle5671]

I have the same question.

[@feral_shade]

Yeah cost definitely is a factor for ne too! In the US I ate sushi a lot growing up... but later, with an adult appetite (and budget), it just was too expensive, $100 (10,000 ¥)... and that was of mediocre quality I imagine a meal as exquisite as this would be a lot more?

[@LatinaKamilla]

Hi Shogo San, how much was this chef’s course? I would like to put it on my list if I ever find time to visit Japan! ^_^

Hi shogo! Can you explain what’s the difference of samurai and ninja/shinobi? Keep up the great work!

[@COl-rn5th]

A question: In omakasé restaurants can I ask that some type of food NOT to be among the choices the chef makes? I'm extremely allergic to shellfish (shrimp, lobster, crab, prawns, etc.), so even though I'd love to visit a restaurant like the one shown in the video, I'd have to avoid it if I can't make sure I won't be offered things I can't and won't eat.

[@alaskancoppertop]

You'd also want to ask them what precautions they take to prevent cross contamination in the kitchen with storage and prep work.

[@empress2529]

Yeah wow you are allergic to all seafood? (to my understanding shrimps, prawns, lobsters, are not "shellfish"). Also, I guess that not all people in the world are use to eat sea uchin, congel eel, yellowtail simmered fish... maybe there is a touristic version?

[@COl-rn5th]

@@empress2529 Isn't "all seafood" fish + shellfish? I can eat fish. Shellfish (arthropods + mollusks) are bad for me, however.

I've eaten sushi in America so I'm not sure if Japanese sushi is different. Many foods are Americanized and differ from their original culture taste and prep.

[@user-ly6mf5bs7g]

Maybe it is different!! But this also brings alot of questions like if in America changes the way its prep?

[@Jungletraveler00_12]

It all comes down to quality of ingredients (protein, greens, rice) and how the sushi is made.

[@theperceptor9287]

I'm sure it's a combination of both the ingredients and the way it is prepared in America they don't spend a lot of time to an individual person we tend to mass produce for more people to earn higher profits. Unfortunately but if they catered to a few the cost would go up per customer, so give and take.

[@empress2529]

@@theperceptor9287 is a combination of quality, how is prepared and served, and how is eaten: In Israel we dip the sushi as the sashimi, into soya or Teriyaki sauce, into Japanese spicy mayo, they ate the sushi with the brushed sauce only

[@theperceptor9287]

@@empress2529 Hello and thank you for sharing how you eat sushi in Israel. In America we usually have ours with soy sauce, ginger, and wassabi. I've never been offered the mayo and also rice is served but not as a rice ball. Some sushi is wrapped in seaweed but never the rice. And if I remember correctly in the video he mentioned that rice was kept in vinegar to keep it fresh. Most Americans don't like vinegar so our rice is manufactured and stored differently. I would love to taste a true Japanese rice ball some day. Thanks again for telling me about sushi in your country I appreciate it. Take care
