This goes to show you, never judge a book by its cover. Chef Dj is an absolute knowledge powerhouse and inspiration to many. I am honored enough to have worked with him. He is raising the bar for cuisine in Florida. Well done both Chefs!
Thank you so much for stopping by here. He is amazing to say the least. So much knowledge and such hard work. This is not easy job but his team was all so amazing to see all workout together so greatly.
It's nice to see respect paid to one's teacher even if an indirect teacher, and to share what you have become through the benefit of their shared knowledge. The circle of TH-cam life.
This is so true…it was a small world to meet him at a food show and then say I will stop by his place to try his food. Then get so surprised about how good it was. I can’t believe this level of restaurant in such a small town. Really amazing.
That was a great video. So much admiration and respect for Hiro. You can see DJ uses many of Hiro's techniques and also has his own style. The dishes all looked excellent.
Yes this is so true. The video was very touching to him…he deserves all the success in the world. Hard work, so much focus in his mind, and level of knowledge is so high…it was my honor to try his food.
Good to watch a person who goes outside the box to reach a goal based on another person’s accomplishments. Mahalo to both of these great purveyors of food and fish.
That looks absolutely amazing! He has a Southern Accent (Louisiana?). Myself being from South Louisiana there is natural talent from the South, it’s bred in our DNA especially with our French Asian influence. Y’all need to to do a tour of the Amazing food in Southern Louisiana
Glad to see you're still making videos! I loved watching this channel back when I was in college! Now I just need to actually get around to trying some recipes
Thank you so much for watching and writing ❤ I so appreciate and I am just lucky to stop by at his place. It was amazing. Definitely want to visit again one day.
Yes Jazmin! Really amazing you would really love it! I must go again one day. Plus that place or town is so beautiful! Along the beach and so chill. Hope you are doing well. ❤
Bravo , on vois tout de suite que ce chef américain aime ce qu'il fait et que forcément c'est bon , quand on aime , que l'on est passionné et qu'on travaille beaucoup on ne peut pas échouer
I think his knowledge and techniques are incredible. One thing to mention to Chef D J, please scrub your fingernails prior to service. I used a toothbrush and some soap or toothpaste and scrub down my fingers, fingernails, and hand before service to ensure my customer see that they're getting 100% clean piece of fish.
I am confused, he opened the restaurant and then worked as a bus boy only to work his way up to the sushi bar? As the owner didn't he just give himself that position?
No offense to the chef, but washhhhhhhhh your hands!!!!! I’ve never seen such dirty hands handling fresh, raw fish. Sanitation matters. Especially clean finger nails. You’re serving people food and touching it with your bare hands. Clean your hands!!!! Have some respect for the food you prepare and your customers. I wouldn’t eat anything prepared by dirty hands. It’s disrespectful. I would never do that cooking for a guest, especially a renowned guest!
Always good afternoon all day long? Thank you for being here!! ❤
YT is an invaluable resource if you look in the right places. Inspiring to say the least. Kudos to both chefs.
Thank you so much for being here. I am so fortunate to have met him at a food show!

Do you know what type of rice he uses for sushi rice? It almost looks like brown rice or is it a darker seasonings used?

Wow this guy is so knowledgeable. I'd completely trust him to prepare my meal. Never realised so much thinking goes into making sushi. Very impressed.

That looks absolutely amazing! He has a Southern Accent (Louisiana?). Myself being from South Louisiana there is natural talent from the South, it’s bred in our DNA especially with our French Asian influence. Y’all need to to do a tour of the Amazing food in Southern Louisiana

GoOd AfTerNoOn!

@@DiariesofaMasterSushiChefagree. He is awesome
I was super nervous haha. It was a completely surreal experience
Then Chef 👩🏼🍳
Hiro Took The Entire Presentation and
Made a Giant Roll…and
Said “” Thank You
Very Much “”
Good afternoon 😃
Good afternoon!
I am confused, he opened the restaurant and then worked as a bus boy only to work his way up to the sushi bar? As the owner didn't he just give himself that position?
He helped the owner open up the restaurant and started as a Busser. He was never the owner.
Makes more sense.@@DiariesofaMasterSushiChef
HOE-TAH-TAY lmao this guys Japanese pronunciation is hilarious. They really don't even try, do they?
No offense to the chef, but washhhhhhhhh your hands!!!!! I’ve never seen such dirty hands handling fresh, raw fish. Sanitation matters. Especially clean finger nails.

You’re absolutely right, but in my defense that’s carbon dust from rifling through the binchotan last minute
his nigiri skill will be fail... in my opinion.
His hands is too big for sushi chef
Espectacular 🤟
