From the chef
Mr. Kajiura offers warm hospitality with dishes prepared wholeheartedly and carefully, starting from selecting ingredients.
He was born in 1972 in Saitama. Started his apprenticeship at a Japanese restaurant in Tokorozawa, initially with a casual interest in cooking due to his love for food. Inspired by an encounter with a colleague he respects as a person and a chef, he seriously honed his culinary skills and became even more fascinated with cooking. Then, he moved on to work at a Ryotei (traditional Japanese restaurant) in Ginza, where he also worked as a head chef. Afterward, he opened his restaurant in Nippori, which was popular for seven years before returning to Saitama. He then contributed to the launch of Ootsu and became the head chef when it opened in November 2019.
