Jiro Dreams of Sushi (2011)
The documentary about Jiro Ono, his son Yoshikazu and a ten-seat counter in a subway basement.
What to order
The omakase, about 20 pieces in half an hour; eat each piece the moment it's set down
The film made a basement counter into the world's most famous sushi bar. It's no longer in the MICHELIN Guide because it doesn't take public bookings, but it still serves.
