This is a Day in the Life of a Michelin Star Sushi Chef in Los Angeles, California. Chef Seigo Tamura came to LA from Osaka, Japan with a dream to play basketball in the NBA - But when plan A didn’t pan out, he set his sights on building his own high-end omakase style sushi restaurant here in Los Angeles.
Within just three months of opening the Sushi restaurant, 715 Sushi earned a Michelin Star. And Today, I’m lucky enough to shadow Seigo and get a behind the scenes look at what goes into creating this award-winning dining experience.
Ever wonder what it's like to be a Michelin star sushi chef in the heart of Los Angeles? In today’s episode, we dive into a full day in the life of a master sushi chef crafting authentic Japanese cuisine at one of LA’s most exclusive Michelin star restaurants.
