今井 速雄Hayao Imai
The Chef's Recommendations -
A desire to convey the splendor that the seasonal ingredients found in Hida's wilderness have to as many people as possible.
Spring brings budding "fragrant wild plants", summer provides "natural river fish from clear waters", and "a harvest of wild mushrooms" pop up in fall. In winter, he expertly prepares what he calls "truly delicious wild game" for his customers to cook. In order to acquire these seasonal ingredients, the chef makes an effort to personally travel to the mountains and rivers for the sake of maintaining the traditional practice of "self provision." Through his cooking, he hopes that customers who visit the restaurant will come to appreciate the splendor that comes from Hida's wilderness.
