Where Eric Ripert Eats Seafood In NYC (Other Than Le Bernardin)
"“Masa is the king. The price is very prohibitive, especially if you eat at the counter, but he’s the best Japanese chef that I know. Even in Japan, I haven’t found someone better than Masa. He has this kind of charisma, presence, and vision to create an experience customized for yourself. It's kind of a kaiseki experience, but he created dishes that didn't really exist before. He takes sushi rice, makes a tiny ball, then rolls it white truffle, and it looks like a snowball. It's gorgeous. When he makes sushi, the quality and temperature of the rice is unbelievable. In your hand, it holds together, but the minute it touches your tongue, it dissolves.”" - bryan kim
