Flying Sushi

On a back street just one minute away from JR Shimbashi station, you can find a place run by an 80-year-old man who likes to throw his sushi in the air:

A test at another location reveals that he has the ability to throw it nearly 4 meters into the air. It is also supposed to taste pretty good.

very interesting… the chef seem like a very nice old man.
the female reporter should have given him a freebie…
provided that the sushi actually tasted good, of course.
