World-renowned culinary icon Chef Masaharu Morimoto serves as the head judge of this cooking competition where chefs compete in challenges that not only honor the skill, ingredients, delicacy, and talent needed to perfect the art of sushi-making, but also break the rules along the way.

Competitors must understand the fundamentals and traditions in sushi and Japanese cuisine, and combine it with their own styles as a chef to create something amazing and unique.
