Chapter 183: The Craftsman's Self-Cultivation

The next morning, I came to Sukiya Bridge, and Jiro Sushi was located at the west end of Ginza 4-chome. Walking into the basement of an old building, next to the subway, this is actually the restaurant of the god of sushi?

When I came to the door, I looked at some familiar scenes, and there was an apprentice sitting at the door, who heard that it was a distinguished guest who had chartered the venue today, and took the initiative to welcome him out and invite everyone into the door.

The store is very small, and it can only accommodate 14 customers when it is full, and each person has a fixed consumption of 30,000 yen, and what to eat depends on the mood of the old man.

When the guests entered, everyone came out of the back kitchen, led by Ono, and bowed slightly to everyone. Shen Feng also hurriedly returned the salute, expressing respect for the ninety-year-old legend this year.

At the age of seven, he entered a kappo restaurant, at the age of 25, he began to study sushi, and at the age of 39, he started his own business in Ginza, and it has been 80 years since he learned to cook.

It has been 62 years since I started sushi and 50 years since I opened the restaurant, and each of them can be said to be a world record for an active chef.

There are eight three-Michelin-starred restaurants in Tokyo, but there are two world records here: the oldest three-star chef at the age of 82.

It is also the only three-star restaurant in the world that does not have a toilet in the store......

Ke'er's face was solemn, and Edward solemnly translated his reverence for the old man, Ono was also very polite, and heard that it was a Chinese gourmand who came from afar, and said that he would prepare well.

After the greetings, everyone began to prepare, methodically, and with ease.

In front of the seat, chopsticks, hot towels, and a platform of black wood lacquerware are already set on the table, and the sushi tray is placed next to a pinch of pinched tender ginger slices.

Lei Li picked up a printed menu in English and Japanese today and helped Shen Feng translate.

"We don't offer food or drink, it's all a chef's menu, and we offer 19 or 20 sushi depending on the ingredients of the day. Today's menu is summertime and includes flounder, cuttlefish, tuna naked, tuna midbelly, red shellfish, ......"

Kerr nodded as she listened, and the menu was divided into three movements like a symphony, with the first seven times being the most traditional sushi, the middle seven times being seasonal sushi, and the last seven times returning to tradition but with a new twist.

Half an hour later, Ono came to the front of everyone, standing on the left with a serious expression, the eldest son standing on the right, and two assistants on each side stood solemnly.

His eyes swept over, he bowed his head slightly, which was regarded as a greeting, and he began to pinch the sushi without saying a word, as if he wanted to convey all his sincerity through the food.

Shen Feng straightened his body, his face was solemn, and he also reciprocated with the greatest respect. His gaze fell on the other party's hands, his ten fingers were slender and powerful, and his skin was smooth, not at all like an old man.

Instantly, the atmosphere became solemn, the assistant took the ingredients, and the eldest son was responsible for cutting the fish, and after Ono pinched it, the assistant immediately ran to the front, and whispered: "Please eat it immediately, without any soy sauce." ”

Ke'er looked at the first crystal clear flounder in front of him, the meat was cut square and thick, the texture was clear, the color was bright, upright and graceful, and there was a strange beauty.

didn't make a move, but instead locked on the knife in the hand of the eldest son who was not far away, Ono was stunned for a moment, and smiled knowingly.

Shen Feng couldn't understand the pretense between the two, and picked up the first sushi, a little excited. No matter how many times I've read the reviews, how many beautiful photos I've seen, and how many times I've speculated on my fantasies, I can't replace the sense of anticipation......

Slowly put it in the mouth, between the teeth and chewing, the fish meat is firm and heavy, soft and crispy, indifferent and elegant, and has an endless aftertaste.

A touch of soy sauce on the fish gives the whole sushi just enough saltiness, elegant and round, with a hint of sweetness......

Completely subvert the previous impression of sushi, full of personality, shocking far greater than taste!

Seeing the entrance of the guests, Ono immediately started to pinch the second sushi, and the apprentice ran quickly, quickly placing the second sushi in front of him, the white and shiny ink squid.

The meat of the squid is thick but soft, and it has no resistance to the teeth, and the taste is light and elegant, but the more you chew it, the more you can appreciate the original sweet taste of the squid......

There was no verbal exchange in the process, and after making sure that after eating the cuttlefish sushi, he continued to take out a large piece of fish from the wooden box, and his son buried his head in cutting it next to him, cooperating with the flowing water, like a rigorous military operation.

The apprentice ran fast again to deliver the sushi to everyone, no more than five seconds before and after.

Every time Keer tastes sushi first, and then explains his understanding of the work through the translator, looking at Ono's more and more serious expression, it is estimated that eight or nine are not far from ten.

Good guy, you must destroy the sushi in ten seconds each time, just twenty minutes, like a general hurrying, twenty times down......

I want to vomit a little!

After finishing the battle, Ono rarely came over and exchanged a few words with Kerr. Shen Feng was not interested, looking at the apprentices who were busy in the back kitchen, meticulously cleaning every inch of the corner, not daring to be sloppy and slack.

It was once introduced in the documentary that there is a saying in the sushi industry that there are relics for three years, and it takes at least three years to master just steaming a pot of rice.

I heard that here in Ono, not to mention steaming rice, it is the easiest way to twist a towel, and all apprentices must practice for a full year!

The reason why it is called the god of sushi is that Jiro Ono's sushi rice has a cracking sensation that suddenly spreads in the mouth, and although the outer rice grains are pinched very tightly, the inside is filled with air, so that it does not loosen when you pick it up, and the entrance collapses in the mouth instantly......

Most high-end sushi restaurants will prohibit taking pictures, on the one hand, most traditional sushi chefs are reluctant to face the camera, and on the other hand, taking pictures will inevitably delay the best time to eat, and the residual temperature in the hand will disappear, which is a great disrespect to the owner!

What shocked me the most was not the food, but the craftsman spirit of perseverance and never forgetting the original intention.

If you eat too much, go to the nearby Akihabara, known as the capital of the second dimension.

On both sides are colorful buildings, large and small advertising billboards, and there are countless shops in the surrounding alleys, which are colorful and very lively.

In front of a seven-story building called Animate, which is the overlord of the anime peripheral industry, there are chains in 47 prefectures and prefectures in the island country, and even the capital city has branches.

Walking in, Shen Feng was deeply shocked, there were all kinds of anime goods on each floor. There are not only popular anime goods, but also many niche, but classic anime goods, full of childhood memories......

When I was tired of shopping, I came to a café, and there was a row of maids and beautiful girls standing at the door, which turned out to be the legendary ......

Just sat down, the maid first handed over a cup of Meng holy water, did a simple entry ceremony, after the ceremony can be ordered, the menu is actually in Chinese?

Order a cucum called the Bear Twins, and the maid draws a cute kitten pattern on the omelet rice with tomato sauce before it is delivered, and I heard that there are also puppies, white rabbits, etc......

In order to make the food more delicious, the young lady will also recite a certain mantra with you to make the ingredients delicious?

Suddenly, the music sounded, and the deadlifters stood up, singing and dancing. Several beautiful girls rushed out, sang and danced, and even climbed onto the table and posed in various poses......

It's too middle two!
