Master Sushi Chef Kashiba needs a new knife. He will gain the advice of his old Master #JiroOno on where to go. Filmed Pre-Covid. Music: Non Piu Andrai - Ron Meixsell • Non Piu Andrai - Ron M...
@KIX_LOVE I didn't say there weren't rude people in Japan. I said the folks in the video were respectable to one another and a model for us to emulate.
This video is very special to me. I freaking love jiro though I've never been to Japan. He taught me that sushi is about balance. I used this and elaborated. Cooking in general is about balance. Life in general is about balance. If you're never safe in life you might die. If you're too safe in life you might never live. God bless you jiro. Health and long life to you.
@@JC-fj7oo old guy then charges $200-$300 per sushi meal he makes 😉 quality would make everything better, money system prevents it, divides what we make and create into classes.
That was great. I felt some emotion watching this as it gave me a sense of how connected Chef Kashiba is to his old world master and the knives they use. Thank you- Arigato gozaimas
I cannot get a reservation at Jiro’s restaurant except if I stayed in a hotel.... as his apprentice you just walk in like a family. Take me with you!!!!!
@@MasterofPlay7 He can eat there 3 times a day for FREE and no one would even think to say anything negative to him. He was his apprentice for decades, do you even know what that means?
Because most people in USA don’t value tradition and craftsmanship like the Japanese. Not too many people here willing to spend $400 on a handmade professional chef knife.
Not only lack of tradition, but also because the US values people doing their own thing, or going their own way. The culture with young people is about finding the next newest thing, not about following what your family has done. Instead of being praised for being highly skilled and specialized, it would be called old-fashioned and stagnant.
Maybe I'm wrong but it seems to me when the master and chef kashiba were having their photo taken, chef kashiba tried to stoop so that he is not taller or higher than his master.
Yes. In Japan, when you bow to each other. You bow lower to a person of higher stature/a person who you greatly respect more than they bow to you. It can be for posing as well to show their relationship as mentor and student.
Love how they treat the items they sell. I ordered some scale model items from Japan and they were packaged with amazing care. They included a small piece of ornamental paper and a note thanking me for the purchase. I don't remember what I spent but I do remember the experience.
Shaku is the preferable size for professionals while Kyu-sun is a bigger one for home use. I have kyu0sun size and I think it's not big enough but I don't have enough spaces at home and I don't cut sashimi that often.
he didnt say much about that amazing knife because its *exactly the same* as the ones he has been using for 50 yrs,, make no mistake, he's willing to buy them there and bring them back he knows how good they are.
I seen one of their 25 dollar Damascus steel knives and it will make you want to fly to Japan or Germany or Anywhere they make knives. Glad we have eBay
The chef acts with deference to to the knife smith and the smith, with deference to the chef. I wonder how Japanese parents instill this behavior into their children.
I went to a prestigious fancy sushi place once. And unfortunately, IT WAS JUST SUSHI! Sashimi is 1 raw ingredient, I'll stick to my all you can eat buffet for $10.
Like a pilgrimage. It makes it special to adventure and let the tool choose you as you are choosing it. The Harry Potter references are very fitting because it IS LIKE THAT. life is not a journey where you're trying to get to some destination. Otherwise the shortest life would be the best. Life is a dance, full of expression and beauty. Enjoy today, for thats all we have.
@@vitoni3865 i always like to get a feel of the knife I'll be handling before buying it. I also got one of those japanese knife during my trip to Japan, and man do I love it.
That shop doesnt have an online shop. They do have a website but it doesnt even have a product cataloque. They also dont accept credit cards. They have been doing it for hundreds of years, they dont have to.
