Roast Beef no Mise Watanabe

渡辺 勇樹  Yuuki Watanabe

With his pursuit of roast beef, Mr. Watanabe puts his uniqueness into each dish.

He gained experience in French restaurants and hotels. As he acquired various skills, he began to realize how different he was from the chefs around him and thought that he would like to "master his skills in one field" to pursue his uniqueness. Inspired by the realization that "warm roast beef also tastes great, instead of serving it cold," he opened Roast Beef no Mise Watanabe in 2013. In April 2021, the restaurant moved to a new location. He continues to devote himself passionately to mastering "Roast Beef."

若宮 たみ江Tamie Wakamiya

Ms. Wakamiya offers guests food that is kind to the body and soul.

Hello, my dears, This is Tamie from Japanese Fermented Degustation Bar ODORU. My wish is to be your friend, and this thought is based on my own experiences, such as traveling to many countries and living overseas. What always comes to my mind is that you can experience a place more deeply when you have friends there, even in the middle of your travels. Among those experiences, dining is something that fully stimulates all five senses, making your experience richer and deeper. For that reason, I've opened my place in Osaka, the city where I grew up and where I still fall in love with every day. I'd love for you to have a local experience, just as we Japanese enjoy at home-savoring the umami and dashi uniquely of Osaka, as well as fermented foods and seasonings that are distinctly Japanese. At my place, I focus on using domestic ingredients and elements of Buddhist cuisine, which promote both physical and mental health. You can even enjoy a mini-lesson on Japanese dining culture while you dine. I will be very happy if you come to love Japan even more through these experiences than you know now. Thank you. Sincerely, Tamie
