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.

He's loved eating since early childhood! He dreamed of having his own restaurant.

坂田 慎吾SAKATA SHINGO

Going forward along his dream culinary path in a truly lively bar, coupled with fresh fish
He was born in Kumamoto prefecture in 1982. He loved cooking since he was young, and has had experience working as a part-timer at a small local restaurant in high school and an izakaya (Japanese-style bar) in college. After that, he went down the path of an office worker for a time without forgetting his culinary dream, and went to Tokyo when he was 24. He found employment at companies operating French and Italian restaurants in Yokohama, and studied diligently for about six years at two restaurants. He entered "El Pulpo" in 2011. Although this is his first time at a Spanish bar, his eyes have been opened to the joy that running a bar provides as well. As the chef now, he handles delicious, fresh fish daily.

Warmly receiving customers with a smile at Umaimon
He was born and raised in Fukushima, but left for Tokyo to train at a Japanese restaurant for 15 years before coming back to Fukushima to open Izakaya Umaimon at age 33. However, for a short while he relocated to Osaka, due to his shop being within the evacuation zone after the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011. After that, because of his deep familiarity with Tokyo, he decided to set up shop in one of the city's lively downtown shopping districts, and in April of 2012 he opened up Izakaya Umaimon in the Kabukicho district of Shinjuku.

Watching Teikoku Hotel's head chef Nobuo Murakami cook on television moved me
Born in 1959 in Taima City, Nagasaki. His mother's dishes always used fresh, local vegetables and fish, highlighting those ingredients but having flavors that you never tired of and that got him to understand the complexities of cooking.

An Encounter with the Master of a LongStanding Sake Shop, a Journey to Discover the Choicest Sake
Born in 1955 in Kumamoto prefecture. At the age of 18 he bought a one-way ticket to Tokyo and began his live-in training to be a chef. He opened "Kushikoma", which was originally just a normal izakaya (Japanese-style bar), at around 25 years of age. After that, he discovered a new-born love of sake (Japanese rice wine) upon meeting Mr. Mitsuhisa Kodama of the legendary "Koshuya" bar in Ikebukuro. The foundations were then laid for the present incarnation of "Kushikoma", which he realized through subsequent pilgrimages to breweries all over Japan to gather up the very best sake.

A career that granted her a chance to fulfill her dream of competing with culinary skills

北島 素幸KITAJIMA MOTOYUKI
The Chef's Recommendations -
With his career spanning nearly half a century, his role in developing French cuisine in Japan has been pivotal
He was born in 1951 in Fukuoka prefecture. He started his culinary career when he was 18, after entering "Royal" in Fukuoka. He was deeply impressed by the dessert buffets at "Regence" in Roppongi, which were still rare at that time, and he also trained as a patisserie. He went to France in 1977, and studied for five years at restaurants such as "Troisgros", and "Georges Blanc", being impressed once again by the culture of French cuisine that he experienced in the country itself. After returning to Japan, he held successive posts as a chef in "De Roanne" in Kyobashi, and "Pantagruel" in Akasaka. He opened "Kitajimatei" in 1990.
