From the chef
With traditional French cuisine, Mr. Watanabe fully conveys the charm of Nikaho from season to season.
He was born in 1979 in Akita. During his high school years, when he worked part-time at a restaurant, he felt "this is where I belong" and decided to go into the restaurant industry. He entered Osaka Tsuji Culinary Institute. Fascinated by French cuisine's depth, he began exploring cooking in earnest. He studied at KIHACHI and Tateru Yoshino and honed his skills at various restaurants. In 2017, he opened Remede nikaho in Nikaho City, Akita Prefecture, which received favorable reviews. It has been listed in the gastronomy guide "Gault et Millau" for two consecutive years since 2023.
