Omakase at Mantensushi Marunouchi in Toyko (about $50). We’re getting near the end of the service and the chef was making rounds of hand rolls. A woman at the end said she was getting too full. The chef said, “ok, small rice” and proceeded to make a micro hand roll about an inch long. The place was quiet up until this point and then everyone erupted in laughter.

Sushi chef both taking care of his customer and making fun of her at the same time. This is the common thing that connects all of us service industry workers.
It’s like the little sample spoons at Baskin Robbins.
I’ll take a hundred
How easy was it to get a reservation?
Once we were invited to our customer’s baby’s 1 year old birthday party, and my dad (a sushi chef) made a baby nigiri sushi plate with all baby sized sushis as a gift. It was the cutest thing. Mini sushi is awesome!
