Editorial
It’s rare to describe a film as “mouth-watering,” but this one definitely fits the bill! A crowd-pleasing documentary hit with a surprising depth of soulfulness, it explores food-as-art with a perfectionist at the core. Jiro was later expanded by the filmmaker into the series Chef’s Table.
