    A big thank you to Chef Masa and the team at Masa for working with us! It was such an amazing experience to be able to learn all about the thought and process that went into this temaki box. I'm keeping that hand-drawn illustration with me forever. The next episode will be airing two weeks from now, what do you think the next takeout will be? 👀 And if you know any interesting takeouts in your city, let us know!

    hands down one of my favourite videos I've watched, EVER. the sushi chef is so incredibly passionate about what he does and radiates so much positivity, the entire staff of the restaurant seem to put so so much care in the food they are serving, and the production quality of this is also phenomenal. i ABSOLUTELY loved this and I would love to go to Chef Masa's (I hope I got the name right) restaurant sometime!

    This was pretty darn amazing, and I don't even like sushi! Chef Masa is so generous and clearly cares about satisfying all the senses. But I must admit that one of the highlights of the episode was Alvin's little chirp when she held up the sushi box. I would have appreciated getting to see him enjoy some of this as well.
