with so many abusive stories of stalking in the Japanese press he could have distinguished himself by refraining from such behavior and becoming another statistic....maybe reading all those stories rubbed off on him, unfortunately.

Japanese chef named best pizza maker again

Saturday, September 16, 2006 at 07:21 EDT
ROME — A Japanese chef won the title of best pizza maker for the second time in four years at an annual pizza festival in Naples, Italy, the country's ANSA news agency reported Thursday. Makoto Onishi scooped the award at the home of Italian pizza, beating more than 20 participants, mostly local pizza makers, according to the news agency.

He won the same title in 2003 — the first foreigner to do so — a year after he went to Naples to learn the art of pizza making. Onishi was quoted as saying, "To make a good pizza, the chef must be free of stress." His recipe for the award-winning pizza will be reproduced in other pizzerias under the name Pizzafest 2006, the report said. (Kyodo News)

how is it? any good?

pretty damn good. you'd think sashimi on a hot pizza would be wierd, but the soft texture of the maguro, the cheese and the crisp crust meld together in a blissful harmony in your mouth.

how eloquently put.

oiishi desu yo!

and pretty reasonable.. 10" pizza for $8, has about 10-12 slices of maguro... enough for 1 quarter slice as an appetizer for a group of 4.

they offered otoro once when i was there, but it was like $35 of thinner sliced of otoro.
