Sukiyabashi Jiro is a 3-star Michelin restaurant in Tokyo that many say serves the best sushi in the world. The chef/owner, 86-year-old Jiro Ono, was the subject of the Jiro Dreams of Sushi documentary film. A meal here consists of 21 courses, cost about $380 per person and lasted only 19 minutes. That’s more than a course a minute and $20 per person per minute and apparently it is totally worth it.
