A-Z Letter N is for Nobu

Today my  letter N will be for Nobu. In case you have never heard of him before, his real name is  Nobuyuki "Nobu" Matsuhisa. He is a celebrity chef and restaurateur famous for his fusion cuisine. His signature dish is a black cod fish in miso. He is one of those amazing chefs who has reached one name fame!  What I admire most about Nobu, is his perfectionism. I can get behind that 100%.  To me, perfectionism in the kitchen=success. Have any of you ever eaten at one of his restaurants? Do you enjoy fusion cuisine?

    No, I've not eaten at one of Nobu's restaurants and although I've heard the term fusion cuisine, I'm not exactly sure what it means. OK, now I'm off to Google to find out.

      It's a relatively new term in the culinary world. It usually refers to but is not limited to Asian food- it's a fusion of two or more types of ethic foods mixed together. Personally, I love Asian fusion. But that's because I love to mix things up. Some people hate it because they are food purists, I can respect that too, but it's sure fun to try new things!

      They feature him a lot on Food Network, cause he's amazing. Even though he's a genius, he's also very humble. I love that about him too.

    I know nothing about him, to my loss.

    Hi Faith! I have been long lost to the blogging world, but I decided I better peek at what everyone is up to, and here you are doing the A to Z! That's awesome :) I will do my best to follow all the rest of your posts, but I'm definitely interested in a food-themed A to Z...great idea :)

    Thanks so much! I am glad you are back. It's been a while for me too. With school and activities and stuff, it's been really hard to post regularly. I was happy to do this challenge- it gets me to blog again and I can do it with Mom. It's been fun so far. I hope that you can enjoy some of my recipes!!
