Sushi is art

Man oh man do I love sushi! I love sushi because it is so full of art and flavor and to an artist this is dream food!
Next to my studio is a sushi restaurant called Taste of Tokyo. Not only do I eat there at least twice a week I have the distinct privilege of photographing their menu. I always love how sushi chefs build their plates. For a photographer this is one subject that is truly artfully delicious.  Here is a simple tuna plate that stands out in color and design.

I have been a food photographer here in New Orleans for the past 10 years. I love all aspects of our beautiful and delicious New Orleans cuisine but sushi is the most beautiful in my eyes.  Just when you think you can go home and duplicate what you just ate at a sushi restaurant, you realize how difficult and impatient it is.  The guys over at Taste Of Tokyo even gave me the honor of having a custom roll named after me.  So if you're ever in my neck of the woods by my studio go to Taste Of Tokyo right next-door and ask for the GK roll.  If you would like to see more food imagery from Taste Of Tokyo feel free to click here.
