This is so inspiring man. The love and respect he has for ingredients is infectious. Almost made me tear up a couple times. That might seem silly to some, but food is one of the great true joys of life. seeing this makes me so grateful to live in a time where people have the luxury to devote their lives to the culinary craft, and to live in a time where someone like me can go enjoy these delicacies. For most of human history people haven’t been able to explore other cuisines and cultures. We are living through a food and wine revolution, and I think sometimes we take it for granted. God bless this man and all chefs who strive to create amazing culinary experiences.

Hey Guys, Much love from Germany for Videos like this. I love your series Omakase, mise en place or smoke point because they are really centered around the chef and his appreciation and respect for the food he's preparing. Also, the calm and relaxed way of filming, cutting and underlining with music is very enjoyable for me. So keep going and Liebe Grüße from Germany

@edgurhu 2 жыл бұрын

@@takitanaka personal disclaimer: I’ve only had Karasumi twice but I’m under the impression karasumi is typically very savory/salty with strong aftertaste to be normally paired with sake. At Yoshino, they’ve done away with that extreme savoriness and saltiness, in favor of much more subtle yet still rich flavor. They grill the Karasumi sandwiched in mochi in front of you, as you see in the video. The chewy texture of the mochi goes very well with the karasumi’s cheese like texture. It felt a very appropriate course for the winter in NYC.

Know when to slow down or speed up food. Know your food preference check out "What Makes A Great Omakase Chef" (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jJ2datuftti-YZ8.html) 🥢 Eat well and be safe my sushi buddies

Just in response to a few of the comments about "20 courses of raw fish and rice" -- it's actually only a few courses of nigiri and then lots of other cooked small plates, include the akumi mochi piece, an amazing basque cheesecake, etc... just take a look at the photos from other diners on google! What's also amazing is that the goofy energy you get from Yoshida here in this video is the same energy you get at the restaurant itself! Him and Chef Gang are absolute delights and make you feel right at home, as if you were being served a luxurious omakase dinner by a friend. Truly one of my most memorable dining experiences in nyc -- and there are literally dozens of 'high end" omakase places at this point. This is one of the few that stand out.
