Movie: Jiro Dreams Of Sushi

With its theatrical debut in 2011, it seems I’m a little behind on hearing about Jiro Dreams Of Sushi.

If you have any interest in Japan or just the perfection of one’s chosen craft then I urge you to watch Jiro Dreams Of Sushi.

The DVD and Blu-Ray are available at Amazon or check your local retailer.

About The Film

Jiro Dreams Of Sushi is the story of 85-year-old Jiro Ono, considered by many to be the world’s greatest sushi chef.

He is the proprietor of Sukiyabashi Jiro, a 10-seat, sushi-only restaurant inauspiciously located in a Tokyo subway station.

Despite its humble appearances, it is the first restaurant of its kind to be awarded a prestigious three-star Michelin Guide rating, and sushi lovers from around the globe make repeated pilgrimage, calling months in advance and shelling out top dollar for a coveted seat at Jiro’s sushi bar.

Jiro Dreams Of Sushi is a thoughtful and elegant meditation on work, family, and the art of perfection, chronicling Jiro’s life as both an unparalleled success in the culinary world and as a loving yet complicated father.
