-
Influenced by his relatives who cooked for a living, he chose the same path
Born July 9th, 1958, he's a native of Miyagi Prefecture's Higashimatsushima City. Influenced by his relatives who cooked for a living, he too chose the same path.

He plied his skills there for roughly 30 years before coming to Sumibi Wabo Hesoya (now: Wasyoku to Tempura Zehu) to cap off his career.

Always obsessive about fish.
Seafood direct from the Port of Heda, Numazu. Every morning we head to Numazu port to buy our stock. Normally the fishermen bring in their afternoon catch to the Port of Heda to put out at market the next day. But we go directly to buy our fish so by that evening we can serve it in our restaurant. Our customers get to experience a freshness they would normally not be able to do.

油井 隆一YUI RYUICHI
The Chef's Recommendations -
A Renowned Chef, Whose Career Began With Western Food
Mr. Yui was born in 1942 and grew up in Tokyo. Because he was acquainted with French food from a young age due to his mother's influence and also because he is left-handed, which is unusual for a sushi chef, his professional cooking career started with Western food at "Tokyo Kaikan." After completing his training, Mr. Yui returned to his birthplace and parents' home, "Kizushi" in Tokyo's Ningyocho, where he started from the lower ranks, acquiring the skills to become a sushi chef. Supplementing the traditions of Edo-style sushi with his skills in Western cuisine, Chef Yui is a leader in Tokyo's culinary scene.

The Chef's Recommendations -
Upholding the name of the famous Futagoyama restaurant after 23 years in service, in a new independent venue.
Born on December 19th, 1958, in Hokkaido, this chef received his first kitchen knife as a child and never put it down. After initial training in sushi restaurants and other kitchens, he then proceeded to serve for 23 years as the chef of the famous Futagoyama restaurant, established more than 40 years ago. When Futagoyama shut down, he decided to continue the tradition by opening his own restaurant, Futayama Shoji, in October 2008. As fishing is his favorite hobby, his menus include his personal catches, as well as wild vegetables in the spring and handpicked mushrooms in the fall. Continuing in the footsteps of a long-tradition, he strives to bring the very best out of his ingredients.
