甲斐Kai

Using the high expectations and hopes of those around him as a source of motivation, he forges his own path
He was born in Oita Prefecture in 1970. His parents ran a “fugu (blowfish) restaurant and Japanese restaurant” and he grew up in a family of dyed-in-the-wool chefs. As he was raised in constant contact with the culinary world and delicious food from early on, he was naturally aware of the fact that he too would become a chef. After graduating from university, he studied mainly fugu and Japanese dishes, then, in his 30s, sought to make a further leap in his development and gave Western cuisine a try. His insatiably curious mind, which did not stop at Japanese cuisine, continues to create new and spirited dishes.

Mr. Takeya is the owner who continues to pursue Matsusaka beef, providing enjoyable moments of food and smiles.
He was born in 1976 in Mie. From a young age, he was familiar with the restaurant industry, including helping out at his older brother's yakiniku restaurant. In 2007, he opened Takeya Gyuuniku-ten. Hoping to "convey the true taste of Matsusaka beef," he decided, after repeated trial and error, to set its own standards for purchasing the beef. He believes that the appeal of yakiniku is that it is "fun" and considers not only the cooking area but also the conversation and atmosphere at the table to be important. As such, the restaurant delivers the deliciousness that supports this enjoyment to the visiting people.
