Japan-born chocolatier Yasushi Sasaki has been named Brussels' chocolatier of the year by the prestigious Gault&Millau food guide, earning praise as a “flavour wizard”. Sasaki moved from Japan to Belgium at the age of 19 with no plans or ability to speak French before he decided to chase a career as a chocolatier which he now says is his whole life. His chocolate creations are marriages of culinary traditions from Japan and Belgium - sourcing and using ingredients such as matcha tea, yuzu and red beans.

From a young boy who couldn't speak a lick of French, to a guy with big name and booming business. Hope his love for his work continue to spread happiness to himself and everyone.
"flavour wizard" is a sick nickname for a chef
South China Morning Post talking about a japanese man speaking french in belgium, now i've seen it all
hahahahaha!
Isn’t French the default in Belgium anyways..??
@@DocNob0dy There is no default language in Belgium, languages are highly compartmentalized, all equally important among each other (Dutch/French/German), depending where you live.
@@DocNob0dy i guess it depends where u live, most belgium people ive spoken to speak dutch.
@@MyLifeInPlaces 😲 learning new knowledge everyday
This is such a sweet story (no pun intended)
He broke through so many barriers to become such a loved and respected professional in an entirely different country.
Gotta admire the Japanese. They do things with highest dedication possible.
Yes
Resilient since 1945
@@sc4ll1wag94wrong term and year period here buddy
@@dallas_pandora4206 1945 is pretty fine, which year do you prefer?
@@sc4ll1wag94 even in WWII, they were pretty resilient (with suicide bombers and whatever), just in a way that made other people hate them
no surprise. whatever the japanese do becomes their passion project.
My life inna nutshell
I’m sure people like him are rare even in Japan
@@rax1899 you’d think but nope, chefs are heavily celebrated in Japan and even feature their portraits on konbini items they design!
@@ironhell813 yea but not every chef is like that, and not everyone is a chef.
That’s got jack to do with what I said. There’s lots of Japanese chefs food is very well respected in Japan
Speaking the local language, understanding the culinary culture and taste preferences of your customers, having connections, blessed with loads of cash to invest in any venture business...all these will give you advantages.
But nothing will make you succeed better than hard work and dedication.
This is a truly inspirational West meets East fusion business success story.
Despite his immense popularity and huge customer base, he doesn't want to expand into having 2 shops to manage as having only 1 shop to manage means he has full control of the quality of his products and what products he produces.
Customers will always wait for a quality product no matter how thin their patience gets.
The best chocolates I've ever tried were Nama Chocolates from Japan. The Japanese absolutely excel in every craft they do!
Did you try the Nanjing 1937, it taste like spuke. It is hard to swallow when you look at it.
@@mindmybusynassm1645my great uncle did
Everything except IT
@@mindmybusynassm1645The Japanese excel at nanjing 1937 though
Royce brand is famous
The first chocolatier of Brussels was Greec (Leonidas) , the last comer is Japanese !! What a wonderful World !!
This is such a wholesome story
We will always support this channel. They’re one of the best.
Went there multiple times. His cakes are really delicious too !
SHADOW WIZARD CHOCOLATE GANG, WE LOVE CASTING FLAVOURS!! 🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
THIS VIDEO HAS BEEN SPONSORED BY... THE JAPANESE GOVERNMENT ⚛⚛⚛⚛ ☢☢☢☢
well now he is.
while here, in my city. all we got is mass produced compound chocolate.
Japanese chocolates is delicious
Him speaking French reminds me of the hospital scene in Jackie Chan's Rush Hour 3
why r they whisking the chocolate with their bare arms and hands? lol
There's a paddle/spatula somewhere down there....
Food prep uses gloves, but wearing them gives them a false sense of sanitation (who knows how many things they touch before changing them). Professional chefs and bakers use their bare hands because they will constantly make sure to clean their hands to avoid contamination.
@@fleur_and_flower but what if an arm hair falls into the batter?
The title of this video is quite funny out of context
👏👏👏
This would be like Frenchmen moving to Japan and becoming best omikase or wagyu rancher
Charlie's competitor?

Watching this is kind of depressing since I can't eat chocolate anymore, not even my favorite Butterfinger. 😢
A French-speaking Asian? It sounds 'Rush Hour' to me...
Never heard of Asians speaking French in real life, huh?!! Mais si, nous sommes nombreux à parler français, Monsieur Junior Rosencrantz lol
You have to remember, the French ruled a part of Asia called French Indochina that incorporated present day Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, and even China. The legacy of that is that there's quite a few French speaking Asians, including the ones that ended up moving to France.
Love me some chocolate. 🍫
tabe masu
People who love Japan🇯🇵 🥰

The last chang is here. You called it LOL
Third-world China 🇨🇳 should look up to superpower Japan 🇯🇵 to learn how to become a mild-mannered and open-minded nation.
Especially the Japanese chocolate taste better when it comes to the mind the Japanese Nanjing masacre. So disgusting.
@@ToiChutGongWu the @nextlastchang blocked me and my comments. I just try to figure our how to block him completely from YT.
Third-world US, EU, and Israel should look up to superpowers Japan and China to learn how to become disciplined and be their very best without sanctioning nations, causing wars, and supporting genocide in Israel.
This message is to.
@nextlastchang.
The Japanese @nextlastchang have no chance with any chocolate business especially in China.
The Japanese chocolate will nevwr taste due to the unprecedented the Japanese Nanjing genocide.
Lol get a life man
Why is SCMP not reporting on Maldives's election result?
We all know that wouldn't get as many views as this story.
