It always amazes me Albert, how much of an artist you are on so many different levels. Words, fabrics, cars.....I think your patients will be very lucky.
Thank you for the kind words Y :) Some day we will have to get together for a pint in London!
You forgot the Shabu Shabu A! I went to Momokawa three days in a row...they started laughing the last time when i entered the door...
Hahaha, I haven't had shabu at Momokawa yet. I always find myself in Flushing at Shanghai Tide where $25 gets you all you can drink beers, all you can eat shabu-shabu and dim sum and then after the 2 hour cap, somehow everyone manages to stumble/cab it to Woorijip in K-town for even more insanity.
Looking at Momokawa's photos though... I think Shanghai Tide is the polar opposite
You probably have to try the right chocolate, because there is such variety of taste in high quality dark chocolate, that I can hardly imagine that anybody will be bored.

i was allergic to chocolate most of my life, and when i finally could eat it, i didn't really care for it, until i tried Amano and Amedei bars. now i'm completely hooked. it's really amazing what complexity and nuance of flavors these chocolate-makers can evoke from just a few ingredients. i'm allergic to dairy, but there are some incredible dark chocolate bars out there...really easy to get hooked fast. SA, i know dark chocolate's not for everyone, but i hope maybe it'll be a pleasant surprise in the future!
Oh man, I had no idea they did a documentary on Jiro Ono.... one of the big reasons that I want to visit Japan is to eat at his sushi bar.
I hope to be able to before it is too late.
I can't even begin to write about the awe and respect I have for someone like him. To love what you do so much and to have such a desire to take it to another level and to spend your life pursuing perfection in a singular art... incredible.
To have the honor of sitting down and having him serve you what he creates and knowing that there is well over half a century of knowledge, experience and precision in those hands would make every piece transcendental.
It's also the reason why I try to go to DiFara's when I'm in Brooklyn. Domenico has been at it for close to 50 years and it shows. Just like Jiro, it's about clean, simple, good ingredients that need very little (if anything) extra.

Yes. Do it. Rush, he's getting on.
Seriously, sell a kidney (not one of your own, of course), or whatever you have to do. Last time I was in tokyo, I think I hit ~25 well-edited restaurants, Subayashiki Jiro was without equal.
Hobo: We all dress up. We all put on our armour before we walk out the door, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that we’re trying to be someone else.

kind of off topic.... IS THERE ANYTHING YOU DONT KNOW ABOUT? WHY ARE YOU SO FREAKING WELL VERSED IN EVERYTHING!!!!!!
you can breakdance, you're a designer and therefore versed in fabrics & tailoring, you are (going to be) a doctor, you're into coffee... I'm sure there are more that I haven't listed yet...
@ ahimsa that looks totally delicious!!! i do believe in pure ingredients but alas i cannot forego the love of meat... (which i know to be harmful... but so is the overpopulation of human species ;) )
