Jiro Dreams of Sushi

>>80049814
Like any intelligent, forward thinking citizens of the 21st century, my wife and I are feminists. And like any feminists we were shocked and disgusted by this movie.

Both the main character (Jiro) AND the narrator are male! If alarms aren't going off in your head so far you're probably a bigot. Things became more and more repulsive as the movie played on. All of the supporting characters are male! And even worse, almost every single character in the movie is male!

I don't care if this is a documentary. My wife left the room in tears at the end of the first hour during a particularly sickening scene where Jiro serves a room full of customers. He says (not an exact quote) "I made the meals smaller for the women and larger for the men so that everyone would finish at the same time." Things like this would be expected in a film about Adolf Hitler or Winston Churchill (both disgusting sexist pigs)but in a movie about food it was just chilling. And that wasn't even the worst part! The women in the room appeared (probably special effects or movie magic of some type) TO APPROVE OF THIS. Can you believe that?

My wife won't talk about it and I'm not sure I could if I wanted to. I finished the movie with tears in my bloodshot eyes. I can't believe we've advanced so far as a society and women are still seen as being gutter scum.

Anyone forward thinking enough to simply be on the internet, to find this movie, to read this review, will be disgusted by the brutally sexist assault on your senses and common decency this movie has gotten away with.

You should watch Chef's Table, it's a documentary series on Netflix made by David Gelb (director of Jiro dreams of Sushi).

Each episode follows another chef at a top-rated Michelin restaurant around the world, it's top comfy

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKqj85oo2wI

>>80049875

Should have added a paragraph in there about how you'd prep your wife's bull to make her happy again after this.

>>80049814
I felt this was good but most food documentaries are about how awful the food you are eating is

>>80050061
the problem with this series is how pretentious and self-important it is

I mean Jiro is too but after watching the formula over and over, it's like wow, I made a salmon foam, I am literally changing the world

>>80049814
The search for general tso.
Probably the only real answer you'll get

>>80050476
top tier chefs are literally always insane, so you have to watch them not as you would normal people, but as a sort of exploration of ultra-narcissist madmen. it's more entertaining that way.

>>80050919

This. The kitchen is a hostile environment and only the biggest Chads make it to the top (see Gordon Ramsay for example)

Sushi is the most reddit food you can have

>>80050061
this series is shit,

first episode is just that post modern italian simpleton talking about how he met his wife,

dropped it after the 3rd episode, with the argentinian who speaks about polygamy and shit, and do nothing but watch his poor team trying to cook stuff on an island in the middle of a lake without electricity because "true cuisine guyz"

the episodes have nothing to do with food, it's just the ramblings of pretentious people trying to sound profound

tr, celtic barbarian

>>80051638
No, I love mackerel, but its super cheap fish, it's like the poor-people's salmon here, it's 2.5$/kilo for the top tier mackerel. This fish https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garfish is similar to the mackerel, but better, it's leaner and not so fishy, a cleaner more balanced taste.

>>80051624
Carp is an aquired taste, it's very very fatty fresh-water fish, and even though it's fatty the preferred style of cooking here is fried, I can't eat that, even though I like fatty fish/meat.

>>80051654
We also have marinated mackerel, smoked mackerel, dried mackerel and I love all of those, but I also love marinated sprats.

Confirmed for food retard. Maybe you should go to your favorite 3 michelin stars mcdonalds and slurp up on some American freedom shitted pants.

>>80051856

thanks, i thought it looked a little bit too sticky to be soy sauce but then again it's Jiro so it was probably stirred for 4 hours in the back or something like that

>>80049814

>Tfw the guy kind of admits that his extreme dedication to his food has been at the expense of his relationships with his family

I don't really get people who sacrifice family for work, only one will care about you at the end of the day

>>80051905

Well he teached his sons the mastery of his craft and his younger son now owns a super-expensive restaurant in Roppongi Hills (which is basically the Beverly Hills of Tokyo) while he made the older son the heir to his empire.

>>80051905
His sons respect him.

Damn, why are japs so good at doing things?

>>80051654
That looks absolutely disgusting

>>80052073

absolutely

that's why there are so many NEET's leeching off society nowadays, pathetic

>>80049814
The movie was fine but that fucking autist was insufferable. Let me do one fucking thing, it's the epitome of laziness and hipsters think it's art. Anyone can do that if they really want to and it doesn't take years like the japs make it out to be.

>>80052073
he's right, but his generation made it very difficult for making it as a small business, so he's also wrong.

>>80052170

Try Midnight Diner, there's a season on Netflix. It's like food kino mixed with a very mellow episodic soap opera. I love it.

>>80052223
He's right though
I mean come on, he's making rice balls. What's the big deal

>>80052192

>his generation

i think you mean the internet and e-commerce made it difficult to succeed as a small business as people do all their shopping online nowadays

>>80051217
I liked the show but you're completely correct here.

>>80052253

He makes enough money of it to live comftably, provide for his family, employ people and enjoy his simple job instead of claiming welfare and hating the world?

an old autist who destroyed his family and has no knowledge of the world, he can do one thing and one thing only in his miserable life

>>80052073
Nature > nurture
Some parents don't cut their kids any slack and the kid winds up pushing themselves into success as a result, but that's like 1 in every few thousand at best. Most just treat their kids like shit and then the kid hates them and still fails, or they give them a break every time and eventually the kid comes out good anyway, or not.
I don't think this raw fish and seaweed Steve Jobs' corpse looking nip has all the answers

You are way off my friend.

I don't give a flying fuck how he lives.
That anon is right and every one of your replies proves it even further

>>80052314
>he can do one thing and one thing only

Better to do one thing good than nothing.

Only problem is I can't think of any skill that I could practice and that would be profitable since day one.

>>80052278
i meant the monopolies his generation established and the political leverage they used to make it very difficult to compete with them but sure, also e-commerce.

>>80052421
shitposting

>>80052292
That's fine but not the point. Take the same piece of fish and some sugary rice and stick it together no one could tell the difference between his or some random schmuck.

There is nothing more admirable than being a master of your craft.
Full stop.

>>80052615
You can.
The whole point of sushi is fish selection.
Fish selection is a skill that is impossible for most people.
Going to an expensive sushi restaurant is just paying for someone to pick out the best fish of any particular day which is a service worth paying for.

>>80051236
now this is just pretentious

>>80052762
I have some magic beans I'd like to sell you

>>80052823
you have never cooked with fish in your life if you don't realize how big the variance between each fish is

>>80052867
>you have never cooked with fish

You're an idiot

>>80052901
what are you doing? are you going to say sushi isn't cooking because it uses raw fish?
