When someone asked yesterday Mitsuhiro Araki, the 3 Michelin star chef from Tokyo, who has just opened London’s most expensive sushi-ya (FT.com review), if he was having any difficulties to source his ingredients in Europe, he laughed and answered that not all.

I know I’ve been posting a lot about Japanese cuisine and chefs lately, but their perfectionism inspires me so much! Here, Araki-san holding a huge tuna loin from Ireland, which he served as chutoro and otoro nigiri later on.  Full review of The Araki coming soon.
