From the chef
He made his middle school dream a reality by becoming a head chef at the young age of 32.
He was born in 1973 and raised in Tokyo. His fascination with professional cooking started in middle school and led him to specialize in the culinary arts during his high school years. He went on to spend seven years studying at several traditional Japanese restaurants, which included Takamura in Roppongi, Egawa in Ginza, and Ajisai in Akasaka. Then, because of a connection he made in Mie Prefecture, he moved there at age 25 to start a job at Sazanami. After seven years on the job, he was promoted to a head chef at the age of 32. He makes his way to local fisheries every morning for fresh ingredients and takes advantage of his veteran skills and judgment to deliver the best food that Toba has to offer.
