Masa Windu: “You are on this Council, but we do not grant you the rank of Shokunin”
Chef in training: “What?! How can you do this? This is outrageous, it’s unfair … I’m make better ass aged chinmi than any of you muddafuggaz. How can you be on the Council and not be a Shokunin?”
Masa Windu: “Take a seat or open your own kappo restaurant, my Jedi apprentice…”

Starchtrade:
So, just to get this right, you are speculating that Masa told Schlosser, “I ban you from serving sushi! Not only in my restaurant, but in any other restaurant that you work in. Even if you open your own restaurant! Banned! You have not reached the level of SHOKUNIN!”
Yes, essentially that’s a possible scenario that plays out in Japanese culture. That shit can really happen in a traditional sempai/kohai relationship. But again, not sure what the hell actually happened in Shibumi’s case, 'cuz we’re not in Japan.

Yeah, pretty much this.
No, it does not.
Maybe you are referring to a noren-wake situation?

chinmi
fish drying in the kitchen
That is indeed a snowman.
chinmi: I ate the uni before I remembered to take a photo.
fresh tofu with sesame: they added something (rice flour?) to give a sort of mochi-ish texture
house martini
tai with jellied skin
iced whitebait? I liked it better as it warmed up a bit
nice cup for the Born
Sweet potato with miso. Delicious and totally unexpected. Reminded me of having peanut butter on toast when I was a kid.
gnocchi, more or less, very chewy
perfect salmon
beef
with rice, soup, and pickles
It was quiet when I arrived at 6:00, but by 7:30 they were full and the chefs were busy.
Some big spender went nuts with the chinmi and got an extra item I didn’t.
hoji cha
kinako ice cream with kinako
Expensive but solid value for money.

i was wondering if that dab of sauce was one of the chinmi before i read your caption!
All of the sake you had can be either purchased from or special ordered (ie Harada Junmai) through True Sake in SF, in case you want to buy something.
