Master Chef Susumu Ii

Starting as an apprentice in traditional Japanese cuisine and sushi at age 18, Chef Ii at a very young age set his eyes on becoming a chef.

Taste the 200-Year Tradition

Sushi Ii is headed by Chef Susumu Ii, a master of the traditional art of sushi, which dates back nearly 200 years in Japan. To highlight the artistry and exceptional quality of Chef Ii's sushi, we've created a minimalist zen setting to provide an experience that is normally available only in Japan, but which we hope to see more of in the U.S.

Artistry

 
 

In Japanese cuisine, a change in the smallest detail, such as how the fish or even vegetables are cut, can alter the flavor of that ingredient. To achieve the highest quality, Master Chef Ii has honed his knife technique and the nuances of his craft over three decades. He further enhances the taste of the fish by varying his “nigirikata” — the way a sushi chef shapes each piece — based on the type of fish. Mastering details the Japanese way, Chef Ii has risen to the highest ranks of his craft.

 
 

Master Sushi Chef, Susumu Ii gives his thoughts on the future of Asian cuisine in the U.S., fusion food, and advice for the new generations.
