Morimoto Asia Celebrates Its Second Birthday Today

Morimoto Asia

Morimoto Asia is celebrating its 2nd birthday today! When it opened its doors in 2015 Chef Masaharu Morimoto amazed everyone in attendance (including Chef Mickey Mouse) by expertly carving a 100-pound fresh tuna and turning it into an incredible signature sushi roll.

Chef Masaharu Morimoto was even in Disney Springs a few days ago to be apart of the Disney Springs Party for the Senses at the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival. He shared how proud he was to have a restaurant at Walt Disney World in what he calls “the most famous city in the world.” “Here,” he said, “I have the opportunity to serve guests from everywhere. They come from all over. Nick Valenti (CEO of Patina Restaurant Group and Morimoto’s business partner) challenged me to get guests into Pan Asian cuisine, and not just sushi.”

When asked which Disney character is his favorite he answered, “Mickey Mouse is #1. People love the mouse. And my wife and Mickey have the same birthday. But if I could meet anyone, anyone at all, it would be Walt Disney. He was a genius. He knew how to make people happy. He could please kids and adults. He could do anything.”
