  • Professional chef Yuji Haraguchi and home cook Daniel are swapping ingredients and hitting the kitchen to make a salmon dinner. We set Danial up with a whopping $513 worth of supplies for his attempt at Yuji's luxury recipe. Meanwhile, a modest $21 worth of ingredients was sent back the other way to be elevated into something gourmet by our esteemed pro. Will Daniel be able to keep up with Yuji's pro recipe? Will Yuji be able to take a humble salmon fillet and turn it into something gourmet?

    Daniel admitting he did a poor filet job, but can we agree they did him dirty by having him filet a $350 dollar fish without a proper knife?!

      ​@@coderpunksanonymousgroup8304 It was very delicious! The restaurant is small, it only seats 12, so it was a nice intimate atmosphere and the food was served quickly. We got both types of ramen being served (the menu was not long - it also changes every day, it seems) as well as an appetizer. There was a lot of flavor depth to every dish. The vegetables were extremely fresh, all of the ingredients were great quality. A great meal, definitely recommend!
