HOUSTON – Nobu is known as one of the best Japanese restaurants around the world.
With locations in Beijing, Budapest, Mexico City and Dubai, you can find Nobu everywhere --- and now Houston gets to taste what it's all about.
Actor and Hollywood legend Robert De Niro is co-owner of Nobu along with Chef Nobu himself.
They were both in Houston for a traditional Sake Ceremony to wish their Houston spot the best of luck, and Stephanie Gonzalez got an exclusive interview.
"Over the years Nobu and I have become close and I have gotten more and more respect for him and for what he's doing.. it's a big undertaking," De Niro said.
Chef Nobu grew up in Japan and never imagined he would do something this big.
"One day I met Bob and he gave me the offer to open a spot in New York. I'm lucky that he's my partner and friend," Chef Nobu said.
Nobu's Executive Chef, Carl Murray, also stopped by the studio to bring us a few of Nobu's signature dishes.
