Cheese is becoming more and more popular in Japan and Korea, especially among young people (hence why he kept saying kids would love it). Cheese has become so trendy, they are putting it in all kinds of crazy things now. Not to mention, that restaurant is right next to the American base in Okinawa, the owner is probably thinking it will sell extremely well to both young people and Americans stationed close by. And he's probably right.

    I've had a few friends from Japan who told me that they like American style sushi better than sushi back home. One even said she never really went out for sushi in Japan because she disliked it so much, but frequently went for sushi in America.
    Japanese cuisine is heavily about bringing out the natural flavors of key ingredients, while American cuisine is about the ensemble -- the flavor that can only be created by combining the ingredients together.
    That said, we *do* love our sauces.

      Much of Japanese food culture was inspired by other countries traditions, taken to Japan and remade into what suits the Japanese pallet. Japanese curry (India, The Uk) tempura (Portugal) Ramen (China) and so on. It is only natural for the Japanese to se their own food culture be changed and return to Japan. Many people don’t know this part of Japanese history.

      D D Wow, your comment is very negative. Just because people do not see the world like you do, does not mean that their view of the world is wrong and yours is correct. To think that, is quite ignorant and childish and this mindset is the cause of many wars. The Japanese do not act as individuals as we do in the west, they are part of a unit, they go out of their way not to create friction within the group. This is not two faced in Japan it’s called respect.

In this setting, I believe these gentlemen were being completely honest. It isn't being two faced, its politeness and being gracious of hospitality.

    Here’s a combo for you grill eel fry rice , and you eat it with sashimi... the rich eel fry rice is very saucy , while the sashimi gives it a cool fresh taste

    Everything goes full circle eventually. Pretty cool to see people learn from each other. The Japanese were humble enough to appreciate what has been modified over here in the U.S.

    not just color or sauce or presentation, its more about combined flavours. finding new ways to bring out the different ingredients, its about exploration.

    Ha! Very enjoyable & entertaining watching one of Your older videos -->Taku has gone from teaching Japanese sushi Chefs how to make 'American Sushi' to currently building/oufitting his "first" home/recreational van vehicle & learning excellent technique in real time as He goes! ie van is looking really good w/well built interior living space. Taku, You truly are a 'Renaissance Man' & inspiration :-)

    This American likes traditional sushi and sashimi over fancy rolls. Although my first venture into sushi was a spicy tuna roll. But once I discovered I like the raw fish that ended the rolls for me. interesting to see their take on American style sushi rolls. Great video Taku and Jaclyn!

    A roll I used to order from a place my brother and I used to go to all the time had the rice facing the outside, tempura prawn, avocado & kewpie mayo inside then on top was striped in tuna and cooked prawn, over that was the thick sweet guessing unagi sauce and then more mayo drizzled with it. It was busy, but DELICIOUS!!!

    This might be my favorite video. I loved the expressions in their faces when trying the American style rolls. I personally lean more towards traditional style sushi, eating mostly sushi and sashimi, but I'm craving for a philli roll right now! Love it!

    Magical things happen when fusion food goes home. It can create another fusion cycle which is just awesome! I would love to try the okinawa special roll that you made! I would probably go with some fried garlic and maybe a pickled onion to mellow out the intense garlic and onion flavors. I would love to see more international chef collaborations and fusion cuisine!!!

      Exactly, just how Texas created something new called TexMex food that influenced culinary cuisine in Northern Mexico. Burritos, margaritas, chimichangas, nachos, all are exclusive to Northern Mexico since Mexico City never sold those until Northern Mexicans moved there to sell them
