Having lived in Japan for a year binge eating at great sushi restaurants, I can see by the way he cuts the produce, slices the fish and forms the sushi rice that he was educated either in Japan or by a fresh off the boat Japanese sushi chef. Nothing inauthentic about this guy.
My page im not questioning his skills or anything but he use too much burner and steamed Uni? i was like wtf! Uni is best Raw fresh his Sushi are too american for me also i want to see him Nigiri a Sushi like a legit sushi chef didnt see it on the video, i still think hes a cool guy 11years in japan and ate thousands of sushi
Your right about the raw uni didn't see that he steamed it. The burner is something i'm seeing more and more in Japan so i don't mind it defenitly with uma or kujira sushi ofcourse. I like traditional sushi the best though otoro all day.
***** He does a lot of traditional stuff too. The roasting and burning looks good on camera, so I think that's why we mostly got to see that in the video.
I'm going to say this with the best intent in my heart, while being slightly drunk. Chefs, cooks we get under skins. We're not some straight laced "i wanna be your friend" care bear bullshit. This guy's annoying? Chances are he doesn't give two fucks on that topic and probably never going to. He makes excellent food that perfectly personifies him. "He's not Japanese?" WHO THE FUCK CARES? Not all Italians make excellent pasta or pizza. So when you stop by his restaurant to eat, the most important thing you can say to yourself is "Fuck it." and have a blast.
So randomly clicking on my recommended cooking videos, I start watching this and immediately recognize his assistant. Me and Ricky studied together in highschool, and it was extremely surreal to watch him here haha. Im glad he's doing well in NY, and learning from what seems to be an awesome chef! Cheers from Puerto Rico, brother! I'll go visit when I take my first trip to NY!
navstra damus what's kind of weird about fish from Japan is, a lot of tuna is caught all over the world, flash frozen, and shipped to Tsukiji market in Japan. It's then graded there, sold, and sent all over the world. So you can very well have a tuna caught in Massachusetts, shipped to Japan to be sold, and delivered back to a sushi restaurant in Massachussetts.
navstra damus So... The best fish in the world is centralised in Japan at their Fish markets, Including Tuna From USA. So why he talks about fish from japan is high Quality and the consistent grading. The Actual fish is from all over the world, Japan has virtually no tuna left so they buy from everywhere else including the US, Watch Big tuna tv series, massive bluefin exported to japan from the USA the Slaughter and storage is important, tuna are warm blooded.
This is my favorite Munchies video, the chef seems so cool. I can't imagine not laughing if someone told me to make sure to touch her hand so I can smell it later.
PT111111 The flavors, colors, ingredients and passion of the Asian cuisine is to me so much more intriguing, than the comfort food we typically know in the west.
You just can't win. There's an Asian guy who think it's weird to see a white guy being a sushi chef and he cop the flak. I on the other hand, am happy to see a white guy so into Asian food that he chose to become a sushi chef... and I also cop the flak. lol
***** How dare you judging him even though you never even seen him in person. Hes a sushi master who can afford to charge 200$ for his work now tell me what you achieved in life that gives you the right to make fun of him.
I was surprised to see how his cooking style is authentic and familiar to me as Japanese. Now I get it. He was trained at sushi bar of Tukiji, Meca of Sushi
SoleofMischief yeah this sushichef its like "im white and i know how to make sushi and i am a master ive learned from tokyo from a sushimaster and im dressing like a hipster with a grembule ,make fun of my collegues infront of the camera and costumer by saying 'my dick is bigger than yours'."
Um... I always thought umami was the name for the flavor of "meatiness." Not salty, but savory, like that flavor you get with a nice cut of beef. Call me uneducated if you like, I still love good sushi. This guy seems a bit arrogant/full of himself, but I will say that his technique looks superb. He knows how good he is and makes no effort to hide it. I kinda like that.
Darrel Lee you've made a category error. Of course he understands that Umami is something that is registered on the palate. He's saying that its flavour is unlike any other flavours; it is an ineffable thing. It is unlike sweetness, bitterness, saltiness, etc., you fucking idiot.
When you put something in quotation marks, you don't just write whatever tf you want to prove your wrong point. He said "the flavor of that moment in time" which is align with the point he's making. Idiot.
This is like those old movies, where there is the loyal side-kick who laughs at all his bosses jokes. I wonder if he carries the luggage for the chef when he goes to the airport, or if he has to sleep on the floor next to the chefs bed. haha
don't come to a real sushi bar then. :) all sushi bar chef interact to the costumer to know them better , and make it feel like at home. go to your mainstream sushi restaurant , don't come to a sushi bar
I respect this guy, dedicated his life to real legit sushi and become a sushi master, i live in north england but no question i'd have no problem with the bill of going to this place at all if i ever do visit new york
that was the most dipshit comment ive seen on this video yet. do you think 7-11 orders fresh fish from japan,do you really believe that Corie Burk is 100% right. like cmon man
At 2:33 that's exactly why I stopped being a cook, I don't deserve to be called a chef chefs create and innovate I just learned what was taught to me, and why it stopped being fun. It was a chore being a sous cook for a boss that never really worked and never let me explore I really wished I had that total control and creativity over the food and what was being served. I hope all the true chefs out there find what they're good at and create new and exciting food or food that brings them joy because a kitchen is a tough place to work
He looks like the hard working type that start from the bottom. Self sufficient worker/owner who likes to do everything hinself but needs to pass on his knowledge. Good that he picked up an apprentice that wants to learn and do the dirty work.
+Harry Blum Scientifically speaking it's generally the flavor of glutamic acid which is an amino acid. Amino acids build proteins so you taste them in all animal products , mushrooms, seaweed and certain plants like tomatoes.
when the apprentice was almost always looking at the camera while walking with his sushi tray to the bar, I secretly prayed that there wouldn't be anyone walking out of one of the doors of the passing by shops into the guy and R.I.P the sushi, but gladly it didn't happen. :D
I'm in law school right now and I'm so sad and depressed because (besides the amounted student loan) I did not have the liberty to go to the culinary school and become a chef. I'd never be able to just live my life doing what I love, the way he did...
Jesse girl i wouldn't know to like it, if I didn't watch it to begin with - thats how you figure out if you don't like it. btw. Tattoo culture is overrated.
He's an alcoholic like many chefs. It is very common because they work around alcohol every day and the job is very stressful. They sneak in a few shots between customers. You can tell this by the way he talks throughout the entire video.
Fuck, I don't know man. I'm just sayin because there are some negative comments here about his style. I personally don't care. I have a high and tight haircut and I like dressing up too.
If you notice in this video, the patrons of this establishment are not にほん, most japanese people in nyc go to spots like Ootoya, Robataya, Ippudo, Soto, Tanoshi, 15 East. Seems more like a place for foreigners to sushi to get their 'asian' fix. I admire the level of dedication of the chef and to apprentice under a master but his apprentice is wonky af. Very americanised method of acting within a shop with lack of pronunciation of the proper names of the fish, ingredients, the culture and customs behind it, mannerisms, etc.
R Tsai It's definately non-traditional, the torch usage gives it away. I don't think he's claiming to serve 'authentic' sushi anyway:) God forbid, he allows people to stir wasabi into their soysauce, lol.
Luckeux Food is all about what you give in to it. The proper customs, the method of preparation, the way you prepare it, the ideology and methodology behind such. It's alot more than just using a deba and yanagiba to prep saba, slap it on some tamanishiki rice and call it a day. As the poster above me wrote, 'he doesn't think he's claiming to serve 'authentic' sushi' anyway.'
I imagine that he answers the phone that way every time: "Good [time of day], this is Chef John Daley, New York Sushi Ko, how may I help you? I am the owner, and the manager, and the chef, and the sous chef." I know the clips were edited for this video, but it's fun to imagine. I like how John says in regards to his apprentice Ricky: "I taught him how to cut vegetables properly, the Japanese method." So everyone else is doing it wrong, then? Only the Japanese have it right?
Al3xTrucho20 xD some places uses this for years, not just vinegar, as long as you maintain it, it won't expire and the flavor just increases with age :U
So he gives his expensive fish away to the businesses arround him and he takes his guests to a yankee game and closes his place. I wonder if he's still in business.
@@pravjandu2173 I'm wayyy late. The dude was saying about giving the chick at the bar down the "free fish" except the dumbshit failed to realize the bar had been bringing drinks back n' forth all night long to him and their guest. And who cares if he takes of few of his quest out. Like ppl had mentioned networking. Im with you, this dude is killing it, giving the opportunity to; ide love to omakase this joint
How can anyone think that this guy is a dick? He worked his ass off and fulfilled his dream. He could blow his nose from time to time but I have a huge amount of respect for him.
You know people will call him cunt n stuff. But someone as him won't care about that cuz he made his dream come true. In my eyes he's a fucking hard working chef with a incredible passion for his profession.
How's he a hipster? Because he makes food outside of his race? People are fools if you think every time you go to an establishment, the chef is of the according culture. He's immersed himself in Japanese culture so he can attain the highest quality of sushi possible to him. Idk how that's hipster.. People need to open up their minds. Try new shit..
I would have to taste his food first before I started hating. If it sucks, then the hate is warranted...if not, then ya'll just a bunch of haters! lmao
It's interesting how he jokes about horse penises while in the background Italien opera is playing and the guests are not very impressed and just keep having their conversation. I would hate to have a chef right next to me who is talking about penises and making bad jokes while I want to enjoy my 200 $ meal...
Having lived in Japan for a year binge eating at great sushi restaurants, I can see by the way he cuts the produce, slices the fish and forms the sushi rice that he was educated either in Japan or by a fresh off the boat Japanese sushi chef. Nothing inauthentic about this guy.
My page Educated in Tokyo, working under Shimizu’s mentor Rikio Kugo at the renowned Sukeroku.
My page No, his pretentiousness is pretty authentic. You sure are right about that

I got that same vibe
"you know what fucking umami is?! I'll tell you right now what umami is."
This was a fun watch. Dude seems chill as hell. Thanks Munchies.
ImmortalHD as a sushi chef.
u right
Kept banging on about fresh fish from Japan then at the end the guys like "fatty tuna from.....uhhh...........new jersey." Hahahahaha

Ale X Yea a lot of the most expensive bluefin tuna in Tsukiji is from Australia
10:58 that guy really wanna keep his job
MrVoddha glad I wasn't the only one that thought the ass kissing was obvious
"set up as an intimate dining experience"
Translation: this is New York, you think I can afford a big place?
This guy is amazing. The amount of work and detail he puts into his sushi is amazing to watch.
This is my favorite Munchies video, the chef seems so cool. I can't imagine not laughing if someone told me to make sure to touch her hand so I can smell it later.
"We used to see each other in the late night"
I'm not sure he knows what that means.
As an Asian, it's always awesome when I see a Caucasian really get into Asian food.
You sound like someone from the 1800s who's time travelled to this current era. Welcome
asspounderify So you chose to take what I said negatively... I feel sorry for you Mr. Glass-Half-Empty.
PT111111 The flavors, colors, ingredients and passion of the Asian cuisine is to me so much more intriguing, than the comfort food we typically know in the west.
You just can't win. There's an Asian guy who think it's weird to see a white guy being a sushi chef and he cop the flak. I on the other hand, am happy to see a white guy so into Asian food that he chose to become a sushi chef... and I also cop the flak. lol
It sure isn't, but sushi is the more "prestigious" and expensive food due to the level of difficulty creating it.
This John guy sounds like Jon H Benjamin. He's like the Bobs Burgers of sushi
Hard worker. Respect. Good to see you enjoying the fruits of your labour.
as born and raised in japan, he had the perfect definition of Umami imo
I think I wanna be a chef
+Nick's Strength and Power so true! really inspiring.
+Nick's Strength and Power Me too!
Nick's Strength and Power o
nope.
No you don’t haha
If you watch videos like these and think that’s anywhere near what being a chef will be
Your in for a rude shock
$200 per person...damn that's steep
Mayer Yedid that's the same as jiro son restaurant `
winston chiem that's jiro, this isn't jiro, just some spastic arrogant chef.

+Leominos lol
Mayer Yedid Yet he uses SPAM
Used to work there in the back washing dishes for John. He pays well and isAn amazing chef. He works hard and is mad talented . Props chef
These levels of hipster cannot possibly be sustainable.
***** When I started seeing the man-buns, I said "I now miss the beards".
***** thumbs up cuz you said hipster
***** He seems genuine
***** and happy
***** True enough. I bet Bourdain shits on this guy lol
I was surprised to see how his cooking style is authentic and familiar to me as Japanese. Now I get it. He was trained at sushi bar of Tukiji, Meca of Sushi
I want to do coke chef.
This is why I like Japanese or Asian sushi chefs. You get the skill and quality without sacrificing humility.

thats how many people frok the island are vs your 2nd 3rd and 4th generation puerto ricans from the states that most people think of

so if I go to his restaurant... do I HAVE to talk to him? that's going to be a deal breaker
+Marco AND hes annoying
Or you could just go to a different sushi restaurant...
Mac11ncheese yes that's the point
don't come to a real sushi bar then. :) all sushi bar chef interact to the costumer to know them better , and make it feel like at home. go to your mainstream sushi restaurant , don't come to a sushi bar
Azman Nata him specifically is annoying. Even you have to admit that.
this was an excellent episode, guys. this dude cares about his craft. that's what i want from your episodes.
This dude's assistant looks and acts like the billionaire's secretary/assistant in The Big Lebowsky.
That's awesome.
Personality is apart of sushi and if my dad see this guy make sushi he would back hand him back to Europe.
The chef reminds me of Brendan Schaub
bassboost Brendan Schaub is a douche, so that's a good starting point.

Horrible fighter tho
I think you'd be surprised...

It's not about the look.
that was the most dipshit comment ive seen on this video yet.
do you think 7-11 orders fresh fish from japan,do you really believe that
Corie Burk is 100% right.

Maybe some day I will go there and give it a try
Seems nice

The radioactivity helps cook the fish, hence the better quality.
Yah yeah he was chill and all that but the restaurant closed down permanently

I thought umami was just one of the flavours like sweetness.
+Harry Blum it is. its the taste of savoury
+Harry Blum It is but this hipster trash wants to put words in the japanese's mouth.
+Harry Blum Scientifically speaking it's generally the flavor of glutamic acid which is an amino acid. Amino acids build proteins so you taste them in all animal products , mushrooms, seaweed and certain plants like tomatoes.

Fantastic quality footage...I love to see this quality of image ...love

HAHHAHA
"the fish that i am"
He's an alcoholic like many chefs. It is very common because they work around alcohol every day and the job is very stressful. They sneak in a few shots between customers. You can tell this by the way he talks throughout the entire video.
this was the first video i saw of @munchies and is what made me subscribe awesome video!!!
I cant understand what he's saying
I don't know why everyone is so critical, they both seem like a really nice guys to me.
why so many dislikes?
GameNowPc Probably because he has a "hipster" style with high and tight haircut, full sleeve tattoos and wearing a tie while working.
Fuck, I don't know man. I'm just sayin because there are some negative comments here about his style. I personally don't care. I have a high and tight haircut and I like dressing up too.
Probably cause he is white, which is kinda sad because he clearly knows what he is doing

Doesn't make sense to use fish from Japan.. If you want fresh... You buy at local fisheries
+Derhek why ask such a thing....when you know the answers...?
there are some fishes that cannot be bought locally...

John, your pronunciation of "omakase" is fucked up. It's OH-ma-kah-say. Pronounce each vowel with equal energy.
I imagine that he answers the phone that way every time: "Good [time of day], this is Chef John Daley, New York Sushi Ko, how may I help you? I am the owner, and the manager, and the chef, and the sous chef." I know the clips were edited for this video, but it's fun to imagine.
I like how John says in regards to his apprentice Ricky: "I taught him how to cut vegetables properly, the Japanese method." So everyone else is doing it wrong, then? Only the Japanese have it right?
That 2 year old vinegar was a bit off putting.
If it makes you feel any better most vinegars never expire. Some vinegars don't even change (lose flavor, loss of acidity etc.) Until 10+ years.
Is like saying aged cheese is off putting.....
Al3xTrucho20 some people use vinegars that have spanned lifetimes, e.g. my great grandmother's vinegar base.
Al3xTrucho20 xD some places uses this for years, not just vinegar, as long as you maintain it, it won't expire and the flavor just increases with age :U
I respect him and that is all that matters to me.
