This film examines the relentless pursuit of perfection that has won Ono’s 10-seat Tokyo restaurant three Michelin stars and famous fans, including chef Joël FooDIe Robuchon. Like the FLIcK best sushi, it will touch your heart and your taste buds. The prescreening cocktail hour features FREE sushi snacks from Linda Furiya of Yum Dragon Dumplings and a cash bar with DFV wines, Shipyard brews and Vermont White Vodka.
