Favourite Ingredient “Albacore tuna. It’s best served sashimi-style – it tastes delicious and I love how it melts in your mouth. I get it from Organic Ocean Seafood right near Granville Island.”
Favourite Product
“I’m Japanese, so I’ll have to go with good Canadian sake. My favourite is Osake by Artisan SakeMaker on Granville Island, because of its quality and flavour.
A good man and close friend of mine, Masa Shiroki, produces it.”
