Description
This book specializes in revolutionary Nigiri sushi that incorporates the elements of magazines that pick up the latest trends, with the elements of the dictionary definition of permanence.
It's not hard to eat sushi at wonderful restaurants in Tokyo, New York, London, Paris or Hong Kong, but to find a great sushi restaurant that's right for you, you need to have a deeper understanding of the basics of nigiri sushi.
It will not be at all useful in how to find a reasonable sushi restaurant. Sushi restaurants that boast a Michelin star, or that they fly in the ingredients from Japan, are simply offering individual conditions for easily determining if the offerings are delicious or not.
