PIE International, Tokio, 2018 | Hardcover, 415pp | 24 x 29 cm | First Edition
**First edition signed by Nobu Matsuhisa and thirteen of his chefs: Masaru Okayama, Mark Edwards, Hideki Maeda, Regis Cursan, Antonio D’Angelo, Junichi Hiyoshi, Rhys Cattermoul, Romain Devic, Herve Courtot, Jerome Lorvellec, Andrew Bela Bozoki, Eleni Manousou and Peter Baranyal.**
For Nobu himself, World of Nobu was never just another cookbook — it was, in his words, his “graduation project,” the most personal book he ever created. Here he reflects on his journey, but also turns the spotlight toward the next generation of chefs trained in his kitchens, each carrying forward the kokoro — the heart — of the Nobu style.
Lavishly illustrated in full colour, this large-format volume brings together Nobu’s signature dishes alongside recipes and profiles from chefs working across his restaurants worldwide. Bold plates, striking photography and candid reflections make it both a collection of sophisticated cooking inspirations and a landmark of contemporary gastronomy — showcasing the creativity, precision and innovation that have made the Nobu name legendary.
A rare, out-of-print collector’s copy — and a signed artefact of one of the most influential culinary projects of our time.
Excellent condition: Crisp and clean with only very light surface and edge wear to covers from handling and storage. Pages immaculate. Binding tight. Some rubbing / finger marks to metallic endpapers. Appears unread.
