高瀬 健一TAKASE KENICHI
The Chef's Recommendations -
Our chef adds a stylish presentation to Hong Kong-style Cantonese cuisine
Our chef was born in May 1965 and is a native of Miyagi Prefecture's Sendai City. His interest in cooking started around the age of 20. On a visit to Hong Kong at the age of 24, the flavors of the authentic dishes he experienced there impressed him so profoundly that afterwards he sought out Hong Kong-style Cantonese cuisine. He moved to Tokyo at 29 and, after training mainly at hotel restaurants, including the Tokyo and Maihama Sheraton Hotels, he participated in the opening of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Tokyo. Three years later, he achieved his first one-star Michelin rating and, after another four years, he opened Cantonese "Tsubame" KEN TAKASE.

Doing part time work as a student inspired me to enter the world of cuisine
I was born in Tokyo during June 1975, and set my heart on entering the world of cuisine after taking on part time work at a restaurant during my university days. After gaining experience at various restaurants I became a chef at FRENCHIES. As a restaurant where you can casually savor delicious food and wine, we offer a broad menu that is well-matched to the taste of the wines.

He is a chef that is devoted to drawing out the the flavor of finequality ingredients through flamebroiliing.
He was born in 1972. After graduating high school, he first started cooking Japanese cuisine. Starting his training from scratch, he was lucky enough to meet a respectable boss, who put him through rigorous training, day in and day out, allowing him to blossom into a chef. After that, he got his feet wet while working in a restaurant and then became the head griller at Sakagura Kura. He says that the most important things in his job are making sure that all the ingredients procured by the shop are first-rate and flavorful, can have that flavor drawn out through flame-broiling, and ensuring that customers savor every moment of tasting them.

服部 公一HATTORI KOICHI
The Chef's Recommendations -
The traditional homemade food that he finally reached after traveling all over Spain.
He was born in Tokyo in 1979. He found employment for a period after graduating from college, but resolved to aim to become a chef. With just the clothes on his back, he went to Spain and perfected his skills over five and a half years in a total of eleven restaurants, from bars on the street to famous modern Spanish restaurants. He was particularly surprised by the homemade food that he encountered in the rural community of Catalonia. This surprise carried over to "Amets", which he opened soon after returning to Japan. He admired wild game so much that he obtained a hunting license by himself, and he is distinctly characterized by his speedy actions, as he says, "Once I think about it, I do it immediately."

A diehard chef, straight along this road from his middleschool longing
Born August 19, 1968, in Yokosuka, Kanazawa, during his middle school days he always gazed upon the neighborhood Chinese restaurant, impressed with the smells and the sounds he heard from its kitchen.

He built up experience at many different Chinese restaurants, most notable The Westin Tokyo's Ryutemmon. He has been working at China Room since 2003.

Wanting to become an artisan from a young age, he has taken his place in the world of cuisine
He pursued the world of cuisine because he loved eating as a child and had dreamed of being an artisan ever since he was young. He also gained a strong interest in cooking through his mother who was a very good cook. He opened his own restaurant in 2000 after training at Chinzanso and the restaurant Rezzo in Kyodo. He continues to provide fastidiously prepared cuisine with choice ingredients; yet, you can still visit Trattoria 522 as an everyday restaurant.

I had a fascination with the hospitality industry and I always hoped to have my own place!
My first job working in the hospitality industry was at an izakaya. While I was working there, I became very interested in the industry and I began to think about starting up my own place. From that time on, all of my attention went into learning how to cook. The izakaya that I worked at focused mainly on seafood based cuisine, which meant that I gained a lot of knowledge and tricks about cooking with fish. People say that my knowledge of fish is on a different level to others.
