國田 健KUNITA TAKESHI
-
A missionary for legitimate Italian cuisine He fell for fresh pasta and chose the path of Italian food
After working in a French restaurant, he was taken to an Italian restaurant by an associate and ate fresh pasta for the first time. He got an incredible shock and, his heart brimming with a desire to learn more, he started learning about Italian cuisine. Crossing over to Italy by himself, his self-confidence, built over a 10 year career, was shattered by the deliciousness of the food made for him by a local old lady, so he started a study of the fundamental importance of making food well. Without purposely pushing to make things different, he tries new techniques and brings in new sensations daily, even as he sticks to the methods of orthodox Italian, all to continue delivering the joy of Italian food.

宮本 義隆MIYAMOTO YOSHITAKA
The Chef's Recommendations -
The local flavor and cooking philosophy learned at a small restaurant in northern Italy
He was born in Kanagawa prefecture in 1974. He chose to take on Italian cooking under the influence of his brother, Munetaka, who entered the culinary world before him. He underwent training at a famous restaurant in Tokyo before going to Italy in 1999. He perfected his skills there for seven years, with a focus on the northernmost region of Trentino-Alto Adige. While he was there, he ventured into choosing a small restaurant so as to personally experience life in Italy at the location itself. The skills that he learned there, together with the cooking philosophy prized in the area, also show themselves in "ICARO", which he opened with his brother after returning to Japan.

The Chef's Recommendations -
His own love of Okinawan soba motivated him to pursue the perfect dish
Born in Okinawa in 1985, our chef was raised on Okinawan soba and his love for it is unmatched. His fascination with the dish grew as he went from restaurant to restaurant, observing differences in flavor, until at last he decided to become a chef himself. Of particular importance to him is the balance of bonito and pork in flavoring the dashi broth. His aim is a taste that is refreshing, yet never boring, and he devotes himself wholeheartedly to that pursuit to this day.

山本 香代子YAMAMOTO KAYOKO
The Chef's Recommendations -
Made to be a meal to remember
My parents ran a teppanyaki and okonomiyaki store from their home, so it was there I learned how to think about the food and beverage industry and how to run a business. This is a favorite place for lovers of internal organ meats. The chef prepares everything in advance, so by learning through imitation, in my own way through self-study and through trial and error, I became a master at making delicious food. With my pet name of Okaasan (mother) and good manners, there are many fans of my character which is overflowing with kindness.

This chef decided to devote his life to cooking after meeting the president of the company.
After meeting the president of Sanin Sakaba Kamiari, Chef Inoue was startled by the extent to which they shared the same thinking and decided to move from an unrelated industry to become a chef. His eyes shine as he tells us how fun it is for him to receive direct, positive feedback from customers. He also feels that this work, where he gives shape to his own ideas with the design of the menu and flavoring of the food, has real meaning. Each day he works to continue to produce delicious food.
