小倉 哲OGURA SATOSHI
-
Learning the joy of cooking from a Chinese chef, and its depth from a Japanese master.
Born in 1973 in Chiba Prefecture, his inspiration for pursuing this path was a Chinese chef who showed him the joy of cooking at the restaurant where he worked part-time as a high school freshman. He later became the apprentice of a Japanese chef while working at another restaurant. Although the chef was a well-rounded master who had studied abroad, he still said "Nothing beats Japanese beef." Those words made a deep impression on Mr. Ogura.

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.

大濱 幸恵OOHAMA YUKIE
The Chef's Recommendations -
A career that granted her a chance to fulfill her dream of competing with culinary skills
She was born in Ehime prefecture and raised in Chiba prefecture. She majored in food science in college since she wanted to work in food production, but after graduation she went on to work as a civil servant for a period of time. However, she says that, "I wanted to be in a job that involved making food," so she devoted herself wholeheartedly to that dream when she turned 30. She studied Japanese cuisine at Ecole Tsuji Tokyo for a year, and after that she learned the basics of cooking at Matsushita in Waseda, and studied sake (Japanese rice wine) at Sasagin in Yoyogi-Uehara. She underwent further training at Ishii in Shimbashi, and then in 2010 she opened Ohama in Asagaya, which moved to Kamakura in 2014.
