BLOG: JIRO DREAMS OF SUSHI

2011 documentary film "Jiro Dreams of Sushi", directed by David Gelb, is finally hitting UK cinemas this week. It's enjoyed prestigious selection from the Tribeca Film Festival as the story follows the life of perhaps the world's greatest sushi chef, Jiro Ono, a man who has dedicated his life to mastering the art and craft to perfection. Aged 85, he owns a 10-seater restaurant in a Tokyo subway, accredited with three Michelin stars, where customers have a unique underground experience with the best in Japanese delicacy. I've not watched it yet but it looks truly fascinating.
