紺野 真KONNO MAKOTO

The Chef's Recommendations

The encounter with natural wine greatly influenced his restaurant's core principles after setting out on his own

He was born in Tokyo in 1969. He went to America during his schooling days, and an experience at a part-time job in a restaurant gave him the motivation to enter this industry. He returned to Japan when he was 29, and pursued further training at a cafe in Harajuku, and the bistro "Au Rendez-Vous" in Chitose-Funabashi. During his training, he encountered natural wine and found himself spellbound by its great flavor. He set out on his own in 2005 and opened "uguisu" in Sangenjaya. In 2011, he opened his second shop, "organ", as its owner.

山田 弘YAMADA HIROSHI

The Chef's Recommendations

If I were to have a restaurant I'd have a sushi restaurant

Always in love with sushi, the owner desired to have a sushi restaurant of his own. His dream came true at age 30, setting up his own restaurant after going through much painful training. Bringing in fresh ingredients from fatty tuna from Shakotan, Hokkaido, to conger eel from Uchiurawan, the chef is especially picky when it comes to choosing ingredients, going as far as Kyushu depending on the ingredients.

紫藤 喜則SHITO YOSHINORI

The Chef's Recommendations

His feelings toward cuisine changing from an encounter with natural wines

Born 1975 and coming from Saitama, he began on the road of the chef at 24 and that of French cuisine at 28. Coming in contact with the charms of vin naturel at Le Cabaret in Yoyogi-Uehara, he found himself committed to natural wines. After training further at restaurants like the famed L'amitie in Takadanobaba, he opened Libertin in 2011. With the development of his career as chef and his knowledge of light natural wines, his feelings of something not additive but subtractive grow stronger, and his cookery transforms further into a simpler cuisine that better brings out the life of the ingredients.

Aiming for a new, loved flavor in his native Hakata

Since then, he's earned the affection of many customers, and not just locals at that.

Upholding the name of the famous Futagoyama restaurant after 23 years in service, in a new independent venue.

Born on December 19th, 1958, in Hokkaido, this chef received his first kitchen knife as a child and never put it down. After initial training in sushi restaurants and other kitchens, he then proceeded to serve for 23 years as the chef of the famous Futagoyama restaurant, established more than 40 years ago. When Futagoyama shut down, he decided to continue the tradition by opening his own restaurant, Futayama Shoji, in October 2008. As fishing is his favorite hobby, his menus include his personal catches, as well as wild vegetables in the spring and handpicked mushrooms in the fall. Continuing in the footsteps of a long-tradition, he strives to bring the very best out of his ingredients.

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.

今井良和Yoshikazu Imai

The Chef's Recommendations

Japanese cuisine - the more you know, the deeper you find it. He researches daily in search of its quintessence.

He was born in Chiba prefecture in 1972. He entered the culinary world when he was 19, and polished his skills at places such as an old, well-established inn at Hakone, and luxurious, traditional Japanese restaurants in Tokyo. After that, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to Japanese cuisine and put 20 years of experience under his belt before setting out on his own. When he was younger, he thought, "Knife skills are like sports. I will become proficient according to how much effort I spend practicing them," but he says that as he gained more experience, he hit upon a new realization of the profundity of Japanese cuisine. Now, the driving force behind Mr. Imai's dishes is precisely his humble approach, as he says, "Even now, I'm learning new things every day."
