Text Quotes
People eat the chicken, people eat the beef, they still say, ‘Don’t kill the fish.’  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) I’m not perfect. I am not Iron Man  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) Making sushi is an art, and experience is everything  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) A sushi chef has to spot the best-quality fresh fish instantly  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) When I’m dining out privately, I tend to avoid fine-dining venues; I like things to feel casual.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) You know how kids dream of being soccer players or actors? Well, my dream was to be a sushi chef.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) I always eat a meal at home before I leave for the airport, so I only eat the soup and salad on the plane.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) Shellfish is better to buy live. In the U.S., because we eat oysters and clams raw, it is very important that they are alive before we prepare them. It’s important to look for a closed shell. If a clam is alive, the shell will be closed. Never buy clams if the shell is open.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) I eat soup noodles for comfort. In fact, noodles of any kind. It’s a food that is very easy to eat; it’s very soothing and comfortable, too. If I could choose any, I’d say buckwheat was my favourite: it has a very good flavour and is healthy, too.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) I have a restaurant in Milan, and Paper Moon is five minutes away from my hotel, so I always go there for lunch. It’s a casual place that serves good salad, pizza and pasta; the space is tight with tables close together, and it feels buzzy. Food comes out fast, too.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) One of my great loves is golf. When I am in L.A., I like to play with a few close friends: no phones, no distractions, the great outdoors and the chance to bet some money to keep it interesting.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) Of course the Japanese and Peruvian fish are different, but it’s the same Pacific Ocean. They are different, but I know fish.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) It’s true that cilantro has a strange, strong flavor. People seem to love it or not like it at all. Even I didn’t like it at first when I had it in Peru. But I got used to it - it’s hard not to in South America - and now I can’t live without it.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) Have you ever been to Mexico City and haggled with the locals over souvenirs? Well, in Peru, you had to negotiate like that to get the freshest fish at the market.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) Sushi is something very exclusive. It is not like a McDonald’s, not like a hot dog, not like a French fry. It’s very high-class cooking in Japan.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) I’m a lucky person because the company keeps growing, and that means my team keeps growing  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) I enjoy people who have passion, whether it is as a musician or whatever they do. All people who have success keep it very basic. Try your best. But without passion, you will not have success.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) One day, the people who work in my kitchen stir-fried chopped Napa cabbage to serve with some meat or fish for their own dinner. I got to thinking: ‘What if the cabbage was the most important thing on the plate?’  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) I am very lucky to consider many of my business associates friends. Some are closer than others, but I respect and value all of them.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) My business partner Robert De Niro knows a lot about hotels; he opened the Greenwich Hotel in New York City.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) I like both potatoes and rice. You can do a lot with both of them. But if I could eat only one carbohydrate for the rest of my life, I wouldn’t choose bread, potatoes or even noodles. I’d go for rice instead; I eat more of that than anything else.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) I travel all over the world, usually 10 months out of the year. I stay at a lot of hotels, and the ones I like best are clean and not complicated. You go to bed and say, ‘Wow, I feel comfortable.’  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) One of my favorite ways to use cilantro is in a beautiful clear soup with monkfish and lime. It’s a great dish for cooler weather, especially because monkfish is very good in fall and winter. Also, I like the meatiness and rich texture of monkfish.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) I learned from my first restaurant: Make customers happy, make sure the customer comes back again. And automatically, success has followed me.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) When I’m home in L.A., I go to La Brea, a bakery which does artisan breads, excellent sourdoughs primarily, but also patisserie and cakes.  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) The fine art of preparing sushi is something that you watch and learn  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) A different spice is the most interesting thing to me  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) Any kind of vision needs people  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) With sushi, it is all about balance. Sometimes they cut the fish too thick, sometimes too thin. Often the rice is overcooked or undercooked. Not enough rice vinegar or too much  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes) Businesses that run well are almost like marriages. Everything has to be up for discussion, or there will be real problems  (Nobu Matsuhisa Quotes)
