What I relish most is when a member of my staff, who has worked with passion and patience towards achieving their dream of owning a restaurant, walks up to me and says, 'Nobu! I have done it!' -Nobu Matsuhisa Patience
I eat soup noodles for comfort. In fact, noodles of any kind. It's a food that is very easy to eat; it's very soothing and comfortable, too. If I could choose any, I'd say buckwheat was my favourite: it has a very good flavour and is healthy, too. -Nobu Matsuhisa Food
I travel all over the world, usually 10 months out of the year. I stay at a lot of hotels, and the ones I like best are clean and not complicated. You go to bed and say, 'Wow, I feel comfortable.' -Nobu Matsuhisa Travel
I like Mercedes because my wife has been in two big accidents and emerged without a scratch, thanks to the safety of these cars. -Nobu Matsuhisa Car
