"Retired pro boxer Satoru Araki is testing his mettle in a new arena. The backbone he developed from keeping his weight under the cut-off helped him overcome the struggles he faced moving from boxing ring to sushi counter. He excels in firing up the crowd. Straight from the bell, he offers eggplant sushi with a jaunty ‘oide nasu!’, a pun on the words ‘welcome’ and ‘eggplant’. Focusing on tuna, he forms the vinegared rice reverently in his fist. You’ll be knocked out by his charm and passion." - Michelin Inspector
