小野田 弘毅Hiroki Onoda

Mr. Onoda's interest in food began at an early age and led him to become a chef.

While working hard at a Japanese restaurant, he encountered MADOy when things were going differently than expected. It has about eight branches in Tokyo, but the Yokohama branch is characterized by its space. Although people tend to imagine teppanyaki as a style where food is grilled right before them, Onoda says that his restaurant's style of serving food in private rooms results from consideration for the customers' comfort.
