"The God of Sushi": the art of simplicity.

When I was a child, I watched "China's Little Master", and my eyes would stare at all kinds of food. Although across the screen, I feel that the food inside is exquisite and delicious.

But when I grew up, I found out that TV is full of deceit.

Exquisite is not delicious, delicious is not exquisite.

But there is one store that does both.

Even if it costs $400 per person, even if you book a month in advance, a meal only takes 15 minutes.

The name of the store is Sukiyabashi Jiro , and the person who runs the store is Jiro Ono , a 94-year-old grandfather .

Despite being 94 years old, every sushi dish made is a work of art.

Senior gourmets will be slightly nervous in front of him.

He called Grandpa Erlang's sushi "minimalist and pure."

What is minimalism?

Their store only sells sushi, not drinks and side dishes.

What is pure?

They don't care about cost and time when making sushi. They will pick the best fish, the best rice, and make the best sushi.

Making something universal unique is not easy.

It took ten years for Grandpa Erlang to come up with the order of taste of sushi.

How many people can achieve such perseverance?

Jiro Ono is known as "Japan's No. 1 sushi chef".

In Japan, "craftsman" is an awe-inspiring term for those skilled in craftsmanship. Literally simple, the "workman spirit" stands for excellence, perseverance and the preservation of tradition. In China, we call it "craftsman spirit".

Grandpa Erlang has two sons, and he opened branches in other places after learning the craftsmanship under him. The eldest son will inherit his father's storefront when his grandfather retires.

In addition to cultivating his own son, Grandpa Erlang will also accept some apprentices, but even a simple fried egg requires ten years of academic experience.

Not for anything else, just to improve the craftsmanship.

Everyone is looking for a recipe for victory, but they don't know that this is the key to victory.

Even Grandpa Erlang has been focusing on improving his skills as always.

In order to make the octopus flesh softer, the old man personally kneaded for forty or fifty minutes.

The most commendable thing is that Grandpa Erlang has always been enthusiastic about his work, from the beginning to the end.

He has reached a very high level, but he is still not satisfied.

And you must never have imagined that such a perfectionist person was a naughty bag when he was young.

I really fell in love with this cute and dedicated grandpa!

The documentary "The God of Sushi" taught me that not everything on TV is a lie.

It turned out that someone really liked what was said in "Da Jang Geum": When making food, a smile appeared on the face of the person who thought about it. This is her little wish. Although the wish is small, it is very caring.

Universe Invincible envy those who can eat the sushi he made!

Finally, I will send you a wise saying from my grandfather.

    In fact, when it comes to his son, the topic is a bit heavy, but because of the soundtrack, there is a sense of lightness and transparency. The part about the Tsukiji fish market is actually an underestimated drama, combined with the Japanese fish-eating culture, it is of literary value.

Jiro Dreams of Sushi quotes

  • Hiroki Fujita: I either buy my first choice, or I buy nothing. If ten tuna are for sale, only one can be the best. I buy that one.

  • Masuhiro Yamamoto: [describing Jiro's dedication and consistency through the years] The difference between Jiro today and Jiro 40 years ago is only that he stopped smoking. Other than that, nothing has changed.
