星山 忠史Tadashi Hoshiyama
The Chef's Recommendations -
His childhood dreams came true after becoming a reputed sushi chef known for his expert craftsmanship
Mr. Hoshiyama was born in July of 1981 and grew up in Osaka. He was captivated by professional chefs when he was a child in middle school, and those experiences of watching chefs work from behind the counter ended up leading him to where he is today. After his high school graduation he spent seven years training at Tsukiji Sushi-Sei and then another five years at Matsumoto in Kyoto’s Gion district. From there he ventured out on his own to open Sushi Hoshiyama in 2012. Then the very next year he earned a star from a well-known restaurant guide. Today you can find him at his highly regarded restaurant where he pushes forward each day with carefully selected handpicked ingredients.
