His restaurant has a different feel compared to most in this series so far. Theyre mostly dimly litted rooms with a more grand feel to it, but his place has a more laid back, chill vibe to it, and strikes unique, kinda like how jazz is too
Hi! Just decided to drop by and ask if you could so kindly check out my UA-cam Channel, maybe? I know it seems a bit much to ask for but I would deeply appreciate it. I'm trying to gain and a little audience to keep me pushing and some advice in the comment section to help out on how to be a decent father 😅 Keep in mind I'm only 20 years of age. Very nervous. Very anxious. But also very excited! Sorry if I seem annoying 😞 Just wanted to stop by and ask. *worth a shot* right? Haha. Guess I'll be out of your hair now. Byebye!!
Very jazz inspired.
Papa Panda You don’t need an audience to push you to be a good father. You have what is called, “paternal instinct.” In the extremely unlikely event that you don’t, a UA-cam audience will be of no help. Should be good though it usually comes pretty intuitively. We have been doing this for thousands of generations you know! You’ll be great! Go dad!
Aloei Panda just subbed
Hi Panda,
Don’t Fret! Just be…. “A Man’s Man!”with your children!!! A meaning to ever phrase their young impressionable minds as to never …….Lie, Cheat, or Steal, from his or her fellow man!!!!
So happy to see Saito san on the show. I’ve been to Sushi Note once, high quality omakase with reasonable price. Saito san is a funny guy. 👍👍 love this place.
This dude's like one of those laid back&calm, yet overpowered anime characters.
Gojo
Most Old Anime Characters are..
LOL
Ramen guy but a different font
That’s no even his final form

Finally! Finally, I've heard a true sushi-master say that the "Swedish gravlax" is a kind of preparation for sashimi. Never thought it would happen. But as a Scandinavian, I'm proud to present the idea of "gravlax": Cured Salmon with dill, salt, sugar, and pepper, -as are the more traditional flavors. There are much more adventurous and modern spices used today! There really are no limits. Anyone can make their own curated salmon _ just don't forget to freeze it either before or after making the curing for at least 48 hours to be safe. It's very important, as it kills the parasites that may be in the salmon.
so whats the taste of a salmon cured by gravlax?
@@johnchristian8685 Gutsu For starters, "gravlax" is the Swedish name for the dish, which in English is "cured salmon".The traditional recipe tastes salty-sweet and the dill comes through quite a bit. The texture is moister than smoked salmon, well, since you freeze the fish before eating. The salt/sugar/spice mixture seems to also draw out the oils from the fish.
Of course, you can easily make it Asian in flavor by instead using fresh ginger, lemon zest, and cilantro, for example. Just make sure you have the right balance between salt/sugar to make the curing process happen.
If I remember correctly, farmed salmon has no parasites :)
@@samokada Perhaps you're right. But, I would never take that risk. The red meat just makes it impossible to see if there is any, so you'll have to eat on faith alone then. I'd rather not. Cured salmon is still lovely to eat after being frozen.
Curated?
This is a kind of man who could reach his 100th b'day... Just love his aura, I could almost see it.
We live in Studio City and are fortunate to have Sushi Note right down the street. It's sensational.
I love how he compares his food with his passion for jazz
Crazy to think my buddy and I just randomly went to his old spot, 4 on 6, to see if it would be any good. It was amazing!! Sushi Note is amazing!! Amazing chef and person.
Tha bit about having technique but no soul hits really, really deep.

Papa Panda Its not about looking for answers on the internet. It’s about seeing them in your child and yourself. That’s where you’re answer will be found.
@@combatsoldier2160 you think I'm a good dad so far?

@@YT_AloeiPanda ok
He listens to Jazz, drinks Wine and makes Sushi... 3 things that aren't normally associated with each other, yet seem perfectly natural when he does it... this guy could be my spiritual guide lol
Damn, the variety of fish showed in this episode is very impressive. The Itoyori is so magnificent !!!!
"Going to market myself is important to me because i get to see my friends."
EVERYONE LIKED THAT
Seeing him participate in such an unusual activity form the japanese culture like haggling, makes me notice how he is a man who is now enveloped in the culture which he lives and works now; The US culture.
Not complaining at, just found it notable. 😁
haggling isn't so much a part of Japanese culture, only common in some food markets to be honest
this guy could probably do a lecture on jazz as well as he does with sushi
This guy is the laid back hermit that teaches the main character how to fight in an anime.
Watch out for him, he's powerful.
The first jazz club I ever played at was a sushi bar! Sushi and jazz go really well together
I could easily see me going in there. Dropping a couple of bills on the counter, and tell him make to me some sushi. His choice. I have never hear of any of those fish. Expect for the trumpet fish. That would be fun.
I am so thankful you guys make omakase series! I love fish and these videos are my fav!!!
This guy is the coolest dude 😂 I’ll definitely stop in when I’m in LA!
The fishes in this video are so impressive. And his professionalism for over 30 yrs is so respectable.
What a Great Man. What a great sushi máster he is. Congratulations.
I had been to the restaurant and served by saito san, it's in sherman oaks, ca. Small restaurant. $100 Omakase will get you 10 pcs of nigiri and a handroll :)
wow thats expensive AF...
43$ per pound material ofc its going to cost u but the quality of materials used is top notch
@@doctorcatmeowmeow9619 the price might depend on the fish he has each day
This guy has a really young voice
IN MY VIEW
4:40-5:25 This was an introduction to the Trumpet Fish. I never heard of it. This Chef’s knowledge is impressive. His love for jazz is an added unexpected plus.
Wow how these top-notch passionate Unami creating sushi chefs do satisfy ME!
My stomach says yes but my bank account says no~
everyone: irashaimase
Then there's the punk Chef: welcome
Saito is the best to work with..I wads lucky to be hired at his former 4 on 6 restaurant in sherman oaks..taugh me so much believed in me great lunch meals for employees and every sunday jazz jam inside the shop..UNIQUE..And beer ....LOVE AND MORE SUCCES SAITO ZAN...OSSSSSSSSSSHHHH!!!!!! GAMBATTE KUDASAI....Marco..
This is the best series! If only I knew all this forty years ago, I would have been a sushi chef.
Man talked him down 1$
It was $43/lb, then Saito said $40, $39.
I was talking about his epic barter skills when he dropped it from 40 to 39 but thank you for informing me it was 43 before
I think it’s more about the banter and the back and forth between friends than actually haggling :)
He talked him down to be free
You can tell this guy speaks such good english. Just the way he describes things as well is so good. Legend.
love this jazz music influenced sushi chef! very unique!!
VIELEN LIEBEN DANK...FRIEDEN und FREIHEIT...
自分の地元、
山形県からこんな国際派寿司職人が出てることが驚きでした。
He has such a unique Japanese accent
Yes i think
Bravo!! As a musician.... I say again... Bravo!! Oh... and I caught the little Miles Davis piece 'So What?' Good choice
Damn his voice is so young
One of the most intelligent interesting common sense approaches I’ve seen!
Me - Yay! A Los Angeles episode!
(finds out Sushi Note is an hour away from downtown in the hills but still technically in LA)
Me - Uhhhmm
love this dude
He's rappin' when he talks
1:56
Me: God damn that's a huge ass goldfish. lol
This guy reminds me of "Kille B(Bee)" from Naruto lol.
With that chef hat on he looks like an Egyptian paroah
sushi chef with a global knife. nice
YESSSS OMAKASE LIKE
How informative and interesting! 😍
3:13am watching this and I don't even partake in sea food.😭
Every omakase video that use nihongo, will definitely watched by me until the end
That Tachiuo is also available (though sparsely bc the chinese reserves theirs ahead of time) here in the Philippines and is my favorite fish. Especially when you clean it and let it dry out in the sun and then fry it YUMM
nobody:
5:18 my 9 year old brain: IS THAT A SWORD???
Beautiful video.
Ow he’s handsome! Talent and good looks😉
I swear whenever there's a video about a Japenese chef or hell, a Japanese person, you see comment section referring to anime characters.
Jazz is like filleting fish except the knife goes in my ear.
He is the Mozart of Sushi.
soo awesomee

Goku would so beat Superman
i never know sandaime hokage is expert in cooking beside in ninjutsu
Can wait till I go myself and Experian the best sushi in Japan.
This mans beard is more clean than his fish cutting
gotta say that red fish is a beautiful fish. wonder what it tastes like
Wonderful!
This man is Coltrane of Sushi
Yes Please'
i tot every nation every language have different name for every fish,we all have emotional attachment to it then lol 0:08
I just wonder how much his water bill is.
I like his eyes.
spectacular
Yo this guy is the freckin hokage of sushi lmao - japanese dude
Coolest beard ever.
Itoyori is one of my favorite fish be fried
First time i see a Japanese chef does something Swedish. We say Gravad lax but Gravlax is the same.
He looks like the Japanese version of Kool Keith.
AWESOME
1:30 I hope that guy was joking lol 😐
Camera work make me dizzy
These aren't so expensive fishes here in India except for the trumpet fish which isn't native to these coastal region..
AMAZING !!!!!
he sounds like a chad anime character
I can see Haruki Murakami eating here
Is it just me or he does look like Mr. Omelette Curry Rice Chef...
Impresionante
Best salmon roe in the world
Sushi just need fresh fish...I make sushi too
Why does he scale and remove the head prior to filleting the fish?
Personally I prefer the other types of sushi restaurants the more traditional ones that are also shown in these series.
Dudes accent is sick
Every restaurant I have worked from so Cal to Dallas to Disney epcot they all have the dish towels with the orange and blue stripe were do they all get there towels from?
do you mean these

Is he wearing "Kopiah" on his head?
Idk why but he talks Japanese like the barock obama talking English 😂😂😂
That old man knew how it was to live in the 70s, 80s, and 90s, hell yea! The good days when people didn't complain as much. Everything was simple! I was born in the 90s and saw all of that change after 2008. Not sure what happened. I guess expectations hit an ultimate high and school's got cheaper with teaching.
It's quite obvious he can speak English well but they chose to use Japanese for narration for authenticity.
His goatee looks like a sushi
What a cute daddy
COOL
WE HAVE A DIFFERENT NAME FOR EVERY FISH IN JAPANESE.
Weird flex but ok..
Ustad dari jepang pembuat sushi...
🤣🤣🤣
Imagine a raw steak of sushi grade fish...
And just chomping into it
Peci nya keren
''Japonese have a name for every fish''uh we so special... Every fish as a name lol unless he means they call fish pete or paul or fred xD
I think he means that the Japanese language has a strictly unique name for all types of fish since they hold such significance in their food culture. This differs from the English language since we dont have entirely unique names for fish. "Puffer fish" vs "clown fish", or "catfish" vs "armored catfish", or all the different types of cod (Atlantic, Pacific, Murray etc). There's a lot of recycled vocabulary.
