NĂºmero three on the Samurai list, is the miracle dagger wielding Chef Tony.
How good is Tony Notaro at seeling a plate of thinly sliced, gourmet rottiserrie bullshit? Well what would you say if I told you that our beloved Chef Tony wasn't actually a chef and is and has been a salespitch guru for the better part of 35 years?
But what about the hat? The sash? The handkerchief? And his absolute mastery of a kitchen knife. Well, just because you can wield a Ginzu doesn't make you a culinary black belt, it just makes you handy with a knife and though I'm sure he can make a mean hoggie sandwich, that doesn't take from the fact that he's not a chef, it only makes you appreciate his prowess in the business even more.
What other person could inspire millions of people to dice cans, scrape a knife on concrete to then go to a tomato and/or slice a pineapple in mid air? No one. So what if he has a pornstache? One minute with him guarantees that you'll be dying to find out what the hell else he's going to slice through only to finish by fileting a tomato.

Cried. Of. Laughter.
This is one of your best series ever. Still laughing...
Beee-utiful! I've been anxiously awaiting the next episode, and you nailed it again. I'm tweeting ya right after I publish this.
Yeah, you know, I always thought that you had to earn the name "Chef," but I guess it's a little like the Seinfeld "Maestro" episode. You can just give yourself a title and everyone will eventually use it.
