Anthony Bourdain eats at Sushi Sebo in San Francisco

[androidisbest]

how much did it cost

[SagaraSouske]

Sushi can be made by anyone but the question is do they have the proper traditional technique. The best miso I have ever had happens to be from Japan made by an Englishman who lived in Japan for 40 years and inherited the profession of the miso making business from his father in law.

[TheRealPrizeRebel]

You're all racist fucks, good food is made by good people. Race is not a factor.

[SamsEditReel]

filming a video playing on your computer? what?

[Microglia1]

"I guess you don't have to be Japanese to make great Sushi"? I don't see any Japanese eating there so whatever those guys make are not sushi.

[999basille]

@Microglia1 whats that supposed to mean you fucking racist

[HakiConqueror]

@Microglia1 That is not surprising... Do you go to an Italian restaurant to see only Italians there?

[Microglia1]

This is sacrilege. Non-Japanese have no business making Japanese food.

[silvermediastudio]

@Microglia1 Why not? If we could only make food based on what our parents' ethnicity or the country of our birth was, then where would we be as a society?

I've been to some pretty rotten Japanese restaurants that were owned, run, and staffed by Japanese people. And I've been to some good ones with Koreans and Mexicans and Americans in the kitchen. It's about technique and knowledge of the ingredients, not the makeup of your DNA.

[marshallbrave]

@silvermediastudio @microglia he is not making Japanese food he is calling it Japanese food. If you got on the level you could appreciate the half Japanese Chef's dishes and company i.e., creations etc... you might knotice key wrds like overkill...

[julianownz]

@silvermediastudio are you sure the japanese restaurants were run by actual japanese? every "Japanese" restaurant I've been to in america except for a few have been run by chinese.

[silvermediastudio]

@julianownz It's been a mix.

[seanincali1]

how about learning to use a tv capture card before you start uploading videos on youtube?

[MalkavianHand]

Mmm, fish jizz in a bowl.

[knopfler720]

You're eating Bluefin, you asshole. It's endangered.

[donnieboy123]

you don't eat bluefin . Good that means more me.

[Twostones00]

Glow in the dark sushi?

[rjpra2]

what type of sushi is that at 1:50?

[AestheticUniverse]

@rjpra2 Uni (sea urchin)

[gaminkalv]

@rjpra2 Uni. Sea Urchin.

[DaHomieC]

"95% from Japan? Wow."

this restaurant must be closed down by now.

[wehavebecome1]

@DaHomieC haha, unless they changed their suppliers

[kimosabesun]

@DaHomieC

Muhahahahaha

[mikeandike1327]

you put raw fish on rice... how much skill does that take

[Cutter1018]

@mikeandike1327 *A LOT* .. It's more than putting fish on rice. It's knowing how to slice it properly and where to slice; knowing how how and when to season the fish; how to shape it so that it's not too firm or too soft and falls apart on you as you eat it... It takes a lot more skill than you give Sushi Chefs credit for apparently.

[SebastianSlasher]

Check out Tyson Cole who owns Uchi Sushi in Austin, TX. Yeah I know, Texas but it's the best Sushi I've ever had! By the way I'm from San Francisco and live in Asia right now.

[dejinoize]

何を言い合いしてるんだ

美味けりゃ流行るし、美味くなけりゃ潰れる

少なくとも、彼らは食事を楽しんでいるように見える

それでいいじゃないか

[fall0rn]

hmm bluefin tuna, best fish, the less there is the better it tastes!! just like eating siberian tiger penis =)

[fall0rn]

FKN SAN FRAN WHAT

[blueskyrider15]

because of their biological chemistry, i think that japanese hand sweat might taste a little different from a western person's hand sweat - thus influencing the taste of the sushi

[SebastianSlasher]

@blueskyrider15

Is that a joke? I think I'm the only person who got it.

[yakan1kou]

ここの寿司はうまくないと思う。0:10の包丁と切り方見てそう­思った。あれだと魚の細胞が潰れる。よく研いだ刺身包丁で引くよ­うに切らないと魚の細胞が潰れる。

[idancejazz]

@yakan1kou 違うな。つーか分かって無いな。 活の水ダコは皮膚組織と筋肉組織が密接しているわけではないので­、切れる包丁でもあのぐらいぶれる。 ゆでダコならそうならないが。0:34あたりのミル貝の処理を見­る限り腕が悪いとは思わない。 2:18あたりのマグロの柵取りも、筋目の見方も、引き方も全く­問題無い。 桶のしゃりの具合も問題無いし、ホタテはわざわざ北海道から仕入­れていることにも驚いた。 むしろカリフォルニアらしさがあっても良いぐらいだ。 海外の寿司屋でありながら、握る際にゴム手袋等を利用して無いの­もポイント高い。 衛生の為とはいえ、手袋した状態での作業は本当にダメなのが寿司­調理の現実だ。 そもそも、魚の細胞がどうのこうのという能書きは、 実務経験者からすれば失笑ものの「美味しんぼチャン」と思えるね­。

[Zavilk]

@yakan1kou

技術的なことは分からないが、1:28で映るシャリ飯を入れた桶­が汚すぎる。

この一点だけで、この店に対する評価は一気にマイナスになった。

日本人の感覚すれば、ありえん。

[pip00stella]

@yakan1kou Anthony Bourdainって有名なシェフで、日本に来て日本食も食べ尽­くしてるんだよ。この人がこの番組で紹介するくらいだから普通に­美味しいって。魚の細胞ごときで味が変わったと分かるくらい舌肥­えてるの？

[cys12141]

"a good head comes along once in a great while." LMFAO

[tileb]

Anthony Bourdain has the best job ever!!! I would like to spend my time eating like him...BTW where did he put all of what he eats??? If I were in his place I would have gained thousands of pounds ...

[superwhiz88]

sushi is such an premature food that anybody can make.. nothing special about it.. ask yourself how hard is prepare raw meat.. key thing is make sure meat is quality .

[uberathlete]

@superwhiz88 Handling of and cutting of the fish is key too, which affects texture and temperature. To me at least, the real skill of a sushi chef is seen in how good he prepares the rice.

[superwhiz88]

@uberathlete i don't disagreed with you.. but if you compare amount devotion most french chef and Chinese chef .. these are very small degree of skill ,, lets put it this way.. french and Chinese chef can easily train to be an sushi chef in very short time .. in an matter of weeks or month .. but sushi chef will not even qualify as helper to an French chef and Chinese Chef even after at lest 10 years training .. why cause the sophistication of many of its verities ..

[uberathlete]

@superwhiz88 I understand what you're saying and are coming from, but it sort of depends as well. I have heard that it takes years for a sushi chef just to master preparing the rice. Whether it's baloney or not I don't know. But perhaps it takes much longer to be a truly great sushi chef.

[superwhiz88]

@uberathlete thanks for agreeing .. i doubt those are true .. ( take years to master as sushi chef) .. you see many good sushi chef in 20s but its impossible to see any good French or Chinese Chef till mid 40s .. that along tells fact ... in west coast ,, many sushi bar, young Mexican are employ as sushi chef .. you have to understand sushi are develop and invented for purpose quick meal during war time ... when there is no fire or other means of prepare method available...

[EchigoDragon]

@uberathlete Yes, it takes years to learn how to be a GREAT sushi chef. Making rice with the exact amount of vinegar, salt, sugar, kelp, etc. and preparing it correctly is not learned overnight. You also have to factor in knowledge of numerous sea creatures and their anatomy and how to clean them, slice them, which direction to slice them, etc. Treat yourself to a fine sushi restaurant...not a cheap budget place type that superwhizz88 goes to....and you will taste the difference.

[squezey1]

@EchigoDragon Actually just go to a local fresh sushi buffet and that will be good enough because the only thing you get out of a fine sushi restaurant is giant hole in your wallet that the taste isn't enough to justify.

[EchigoDragon]

@superwhiz88 Boy...are you clueless about food. Enjoy your Spaghetti O's.

[superwhiz88]

@EchigoDragon i been to dozen counties.. i can confidently inform you from my food experience ... not that sushi are any inferior its just less sophisticated then other cousin ..

i am not being insulting to you .. but if you go to many bay area sushi places.. alot of times young Mexican or white guys are there to prepare the food ..i don't taste any difference .. if sushi are so sophisticated , this won't happen ....

[EchigoDragon]

@superwhiz88 All I can say at this point is educate yourself about sushi. You are definitely in the very small minority....the best chefs IN THE WORLD will do not share your views. Oh yeah, Mexicans can cook French food too.

[superwhiz88]

@EchigoDragon i do love sushi .. but i do taste alot other good food in life..after travel so many places.. unlike some other people who only  fixate on one type of food..

[SALTIGA4500]

うお～旨そう！

ここの寿司というか料理は絶対旨い！

[mydog8u2]

ROFL I don't think I've seen Tony this smashed, not even in the Russia episode where he was constantly drinking vodka! Lol

[Azicpok1]

@mydog8u2 Thats what im im thinking

[sivamanmac]

I thing it so true that u don't have to be Japanese to make sushi. I saw a lot of Japanese making sushi in the sushi bar and some of them had no idea what they have been doing. That's a shame. One of my coworker he Japanese and he even told me that sushi is like sandwich, what do u think about that? To make sushi u just need to really love and appreciate the beautiful of Japanese culture. It not about what nationality u are. So what wrong if American man make sushi? So far that I see he is goo

[moello888]

To be sure, it´s different from japanese. They do it (hocho-dirction) the other way around here. at 0:54 It was not by the original japanese,probably

[Daviysoh]

I can tell, as a Japanese, this restaurant seems really authentic Japanese quisine restaurant.

[KatiushaVN4]

American making sushi??? LOL It must be a joke...You American had better stick to your cheese burger for everyone's sake

[KatiushaVN4]

Californian sushi roll is a joke, not authentic sushi

[ffk9]

@KatiushaVN4 it's not a joke, it's called fusion. And of course it's not authentic, that's why it's called fusion. One of the best sushis i've ever tried is the Peruvian Japanese one, though I would like to visit Tokyo one day... the authentic prime quality sushi there must be amazing.

[kenitai007]
