Large fish such as tuna are shown already cut into fillets and bought by the block. Fillets should be almost transparent. Avoid tuna that looks rainbow-colored or black. Nobu Matsuhisa avoidblackblock Change image and share on social
Sushi is something very exclusive. It is not like a McDonald's, not like a hot dog, not like a French fry. It's very high-class cooking in Japan. Nobu Matsuhisa classcookdog Change image and share on social
