When you want sushi in Texas, you go to one of Tyson Cole's restaurants. Uchi, Chef Cole's first restaurant in Austin, is where his life as a restauranteur began, but his dedication to perfecting the art of sushi started long before. Starting as a dish washer, Chef Cole knew that all he wanted to do was become a sushi chef, so he worked as hard as possible to achieve that.
We headed to Austin to see where Cole's career began and learn more his approach Japanese cuisine.

I have seen so many crazy psudo-sushi fusion videos, but this was not one of them. This chef is a good translator of sushi and Japanese culture in a decent American way. The dishes looked really believable and delicious even to my Japanese eyes. If it were in NY, I'd definitely pay a visit.

honestly I don't see that as a problem, everyone has a taste preference.. have seen plenty of japanese people dip their nigiri into soy sauce to make the piece significantly heavier, and they didn't have a single issue with that, eat however you want to lol

@davidjung8625 6 жыл бұрын

That's not soy sauce, I believe that's ponzu or something very light. That's what Uchi does

It's probably a "soy mix" so it is not as salty.

To be a master of any skill or craft or trade requires tremendous passion and desire to always learn and be better. This has all of that. I dont care if he is white, black or purple, this guy is extremely sucessful and is making some of the best sushi in the world. Better then 90% of restaurants in japan. You will never see him on restaurant takeover or kitchen nightmares.
