藤本FUJIMOTO

He started in the world of yakiniku (grilled meat) through a meeting with a friend
Chef Fujimoto, from Yokohama City, is a long serving veteran-this year is his 37th. He found employment in the yakiniku business partially through the invitation of a friend. He has devoted himself to this business ever since. Although he temporarily left Yakiniku Restaurant Konandai Kannaien, this year will mark about 13 years since his return. With yakiniku, it is hard to choose ingredients because the taste of the ingredients directly comes through. Also, everyone has different preferences, so it is extremely difficult to flavor things that suit everyone. Successfully facing this difficulty, he is building a thriving restaurant.

-
Techniques cultivated on Rishiri Island from a younge age. A Japanese chef who is fastidious about "vitality".
With his father cooking at his own shop in Susukino, Chef Kato spent his youth close to the kitchen. He hammered into himself the fundamentals of Japanese cuisine through rigorous training at Kanotei, the culinary ryokan of his father's associate on Rishiri Island. From the knowledge of seafood preparation he gained at that time, even now he's fastidious about the "vitality" of fresh seafood. After ten years of experience on Rishiri, he now exercises his skill in Asashikawa.

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.

Three years later, he achieved his first one-star Michelin rating and, after another four years, he opened Cantonese "Tsubame" KEN TAKASE.

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.
