From the chef
Passion for making people happy with his cooking led him to the path of culinary studies.

Born in 1967 in Tokyo. "I want to be a chef who makes people smile." This wish led him to aspire to being a chef. He learned various types of cooking while he worked in the kitchen of an Izakaya (Japanese style pub) in Tokyo for 5 years from age 19. He met the owner of Sakanaya during this time. When the owner opened Sakanaya in Morioka in 1991, he moved to Morioka with him. He spent the next twenty years by the owner's side, showing his skills as a chef.
