From the chef
An education major who discovered a passion for cooking has earned a Michelin star.
Mr. Sasai was born in 1966 in Kyoto. He initially aimed to become an elementary school teacher and was enrolled in the education faculty at the university. However, while working part-time in eateries like cafes, he discovered a passion for the food industry. To learn Japanese cuisine in his hometown of Kyoto, the heart of Japanese culinary art, he joined Gion Ryori Toriimoto for training. His authentic and refined Kyoto cuisine, rooted in the techniques of a traditional ryotei, has gained many admirers. Since its inclusion in the Michelin Guide for Kyoto and Osaka in 2010, the restaurant has maintained a one-star rating.
