Felix Navas left his home in Guatemala at the age of 20 to join his brothers here in the U.S. He worked a variety of jobs in the Twin Cities – but when he landed a cooking job at Kozy’s in The Galleria, Felix had found his passion.

A regular customer told Felix about a sushi roll he’d loved at nearby Tiger Sushi. The idea of sushi was so new and intriguing to Felix that he marched in to Tiger Sushi the next day and asked for a job.

It was 2005 and Felix was hired at Tiger Sushi as a Prep Cook in the kitchen – a job which he mastered in a few short months. Felix continued to inquire about learning Sushi. “Tiger” Katayama recognized the talent and motivation in Felix and began to work with him. Within 6 months at the Sushi Bar, Felix had developed the skill, speed and artistry of Sushi Chefs with 5 years more experience. And when Tiger Katayama retired in 2014, it was Felix he had been grooming to take his role as Manager of Kitchen and Sushi Bar – the position that Felix occupied until 2018
