Jenny I love your videos! I tend to watch a lot of omakase videos during my free time. I’m a sushi chef and love seeing what others create.

"After 18 years of training under the legendary Jiro Ono, Chef Mizukami is now thriving with his own sushi restaurant, Sushi Mizukami. " Incorrect - Chef Takashi Ono (Roppongi). Not Jiro Ono. Mizukami-san is a close friend of mine.

Do you know why you got seated with the sous-chef? Which reservation site did you use?

[karlki]

Is omakase very filling? Or is it just like eating appetizers? There's omakase restaurants near me but i want to make sure that what they'll serve me, what they have, will fill me up. The courses range between 18 - 20 ish.

I’m seeing a different price for lunch set, do you know the difference?

Thanks for the video Jenny. 😊 If you don’t mind, but I think you should re-jig the rating system. If the food doesn’t wow you and it’s 3.8, then the overall rating should be low too. And what is it about that guy talking so loudly in the background? It’s no wonder Japanese frown upon loud foreigners

[jimntran]

$260 (~$10 per piece) for 3.8 for food means he need to back for more training with Chef Jiro. :)

Stupid question...is sushi always served with a ball of rice? I've rarely tried sushi and never heard of most of the fish, but eating that much rice would be, shall we say, very challenging for me to control my blood sugar (I use an insulin pump for diabetes). I always enjoy the videos, though.

mizukami is not water god here. It literally means above water

That guy who keeps talking nonstop is so annoying Jesus Christ.
