諸岡 昭二MOROKA SHOJI
-
Our chef's former occupation as an automotive engineer allowed him to transition brilliantly into a culinary architect who lets nothing go to waste.
He had originally worked as an engineer for the automobile industry, but after the Oil Crisis he switched careers to become a chef - a longtime passion. He ran his own food cart while attending culinary school, serving dark beer, which was quite rare at the time. He opened this establishment, "COTTON FIELDS", in 1980. He takes special care in selecting ingredients, and his motto is not to let a single part go to waste, with a special talent for bringing out the unique flavor of each component. He's most famous for his excellent spare ribs, garnished with a secret sauce he invented back in his food cart days.

角田 幹男KAKUTA MIKIO
The Chef's Recommendations -
A chef whose spirit is formed on the foundation of strong Japanese cuisine fundamentals interwoven with seasonal delights
After seeing the old style restaurant "Kicho" on TV, he yearned to work at such a place, and enrolled in culinary school. After graduating he got a job at an old style restaurant called Kikumi in Akasaka. After polishing his Japanese cuisine skills at "Kobori" in Akasaka, "Hamaisihi", a fancy restaurant in Ginza, and "Narita View Hotel", he established his own restaurant. He is very picky about the ingredients he uses. He selects organic rice and vegetables from his hometown, and goes to markets to personally pick out the freshest ingredients, allowing customers to experience the full flavor of each season.

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.

柏田 幸二郎KASHIWADA KOJIRO
The Chef's Recommendations -
A chef who layers the flavors of the four seasons and the encounters between people
Kojiro Kashiwada is a native of Miyazaki Prefecture in Kyushu. Because he had a dining hall for a home, he naturally chose the path of the chef. After training at a ryotei (traditional Japanese restaurant) in Osaka that specialized in catering, he worked for five years at Gyozantei in Miyazaki before moving to Tokyo in order to establish the second branch of that restaurant in the Akasaka neighborhood. He worked for about seven years at the Akasaka store before setting out on his own. It has been 16 years since he first opened Kasane.

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.

By making sure ingredients change every day, there is always an eye on consistent quality.
Born in 1973, and a native of Fukuoka Prefecture, he had always loved food, but was working at a company unrelated to the culinary world. From there, he decided to change occupations and pursue the path of becoming a chef. Every day he constantly watches changes in conditions and the quality of ingredients to insure a consistent high level of quality, which means he is always studying the textures and flavors of the food he has perfected.
