“If it doesn’t taste good, you can’t serve it,” says Jiro Ono, the world’s best sushi chef. This is easy to see as you watch one eye-popping, mouth watering scene after another of sushi being prepared by Ono and his staff at his 10-seat restaurant, Sukiyabashi Jiro located in the basement of a subway in Tokyo. Directed by David Gelb, the film is shot in documentary style, and follows Jiro Ono in his quest to make the perfect piece of sushi, while at the same time exploring the intricate relationships between himself and those around him.
