Sushi-Ko? Sushi-NO!
Season 3, Episode 12
Gordon is at Sushi Ko in California. Owner Akira was a successful sushi chef at someone else's restaurant so he and his wife Lisa decided to branch out on their own. When they started, business was booming but it soon slowed down. They're losing up to $20,000 a month and Akira is a shadow of his former self. Gordon is Sushi Ko's last hope.

The wife is really something. I feel like the restaurant was not his idea. I feel he was pushed to do it and now he is stuck. Her hammering into him expectation after expectation made him disassociate from everything. The kids...gosh the financial relationship...I cant imagine the pressure. I hope the family as a whole is in a better place now.

This was such a shame. He was clearly a skilled and capable chef. Just struggled to find his place as an owner. Can criticize men for our egos, but a man that cant, or doesnt have pride in what hes doing, feels lost in purpose or worse, a failure, and is a broken man. Thats just the way it is. These men need comforting support and vote of confidence. Not constant criticism. Trust me they are their own critic and worse enemy.

@shantinaturechild3239 Ай бұрын

And his wife really broke him with her behaviour by making him lose face/ridiculing him instead of supporting him. Sure, it's not easy for her but losing face breaks a Japanese man. She should know his culture better being married to him for so long! I'm glad he found himself again and has a greatly equipped kitchen! I hope they're all well nowadays as well!

I have to agree, a spouse should be supportive, only critical when it's actually necessary, but never forgets to tell their significant other what they do well and the areas where they succeed. You can't constantly rip on someone and expect that to help, very few people actually improve with that kind of treatment. Especially from their spouse...

You know it's footage like this and my lacking experience of sushi in general. Be it from well reviewed places or random offerings of a venue. Frozen or otherwise not fresh. A lot of people may not be aware, but frozen products in transit are allowed to be marked fresh. So when I'm not near a coast line within hours, fish anything is avoided. I think the critical mistake he made was moving from an area the restaurant was successful into another on the idea it will remain that way.
