Wasabi by Morimoto, the famous Japanese restaurant at Mumbai’s Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, turned 19 last weekend. To celebrate, Masaharu Morimoto—the founding chef who has to his credit 20 restaurants across the world and who is known for introducing Japanese cuisine in India—was in the city to lay out a specially crafted Omakase menu. In an interview with THE WEEK Masaharu Morimoto talks about his love for Indian food, his ability to improvise and how he never gives up. #morimoto #japanesefood #ja

MORIMOTOS FIRST NJ RESTAURANT Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto has opened his first restaurant concept in New Jersey! @mmbymorimoto is an incredible 12,000 sq ft brand new NJ restaurant in Montclair, NJ and is an amazing addition to Essex County! I was so impressed with the ambiance, service and overall vibe — this will be one of the hottest and trendiest new date night spots in NJ! Definitely have to check out MM by Morimoto in Montclair, NJ! Congrats @chef_morimoto and @itsmeluck well done 👏👏👏 #
