From the chef
A budding talent that began with an obsession with the charms of yakitori (grilled chicken) at the famous Birdland.
Chef Imai was born in 1973 in Saitama Prefecture. In his 20's, he worked various odd jobs while he pursued a career as a rock musician. He started working at a high end Japanese restaurant at age 27 with the hope of being a cook, but was dissatisfied with the restaurant he chose for its high salary. Eventually, at age 29, with the thought of joining a restaurant he would personally like to eat at, he started working at the famous Birdland in Ginza. There, he was fascinated by the complexity of yakitori and immersed himself in that world. Following a stint at the Birdland in Kita-Senju, he opened Yakitori Imai in 2006.
