Maji and I

On December 16th, 2008, I have entered a place that I have never thought myself in, the world of Maji Sushi. Somehow, I just feel like I belong to here. I was meant to be here.
The owner, Tom, was generous enough to offer me the position of head chef/manager of Maji. What more can a chef ask for when there is a place where you could express your own passion to? Tom and I talked for a long time. We both decided that we would lead Maji Sushi into a different direction in the future, a direction of never turning back. That was when we agreed to launch a new manu for Maji Sushi. A manu that I have chosen to put my heart, my strength, my knowledge, and finally, my soul into. It is my dream coming true. After a showdown, the dishes I showed Tom were my precious creations, my babies. I've had them for years, but I never had the opportunities to present those to the food lovers. Tom gave me this opportunity, and I am forever grateful. The manu isn't finished yet, but everyday, when customers come in and order something on the manu, I eagerly show them what my creations are. When they are happy and complimenting, that was the most beautiful music I could hear in the world. (of course, other than my sons' cryings) When the customers are not happy, I would give 100% of my heart to improve what I can do to make them happy. That, to me, is what a professional chef would have to do to step up a level.
I understand that changing the manu may offend some regular customers, because I am taking away something they have loved. But I promise that I would try my best to give Maji, to give Tom what I have inside of me, to bring out the best of Maji Sushi.
