panI have given this book a lengthy review elsewhere (GR, my blog) substantiating my “pan”. But while I think roughly half of the book is a great reference for the actual (his)story of sushi, the sensationalism and hypersexualizing of Kate (alongside other fixations with women‘s bodily presence) was a huge turn off. That, paired with the “see Spot run” style of writing made this a no-go for me. Watch Jiro Dreams of Sushi instead.
pickThis was a crazy ride and no surprise from the great late Anthony Bourdain.

Enjoy!
panWasn‘t a fan of this. My least favorite part of watching/reading Bourdain‘s works are his opinions about America‘s food culture. In his graphic novel, a corporate chef and a locavore chef battle for control of the upscale dining market. But Jiro, an edo-style sushi chef, and other upholders of food traditions battle back for control of America‘s stomachs. I also never appreciate his fat shaming. That really kills me about him. #hoopla

#sushi 🤣🤣🤣
Nothing says Friday night light a little reading and some sushi and some light reading. Decided to take myself to dinner and have nothing but my book and some dinner. Okay maybe a little sake too. Lol 😂 sometimes you have to take yourself out on a date. Self care is important. #selfcare #zerotohero #twisttale #disney #sushi
