The Chef's Recommendations

The cook who refined his cooking skills through endless curiosity for cooking

Born on June 5th, 1969, in Fukuoka prefecture, the chef had been a businessman at a restaurant equipment company. During this career, he slowly developed an interest for cooking. After experiencing Yakitori (skewered chicken) bars and French restaurants, he decided to work at an Izakaya (Japanese pub), Yanagi machi Ikkodo. After experiencing the depth of seafood cuisine, he refined his skills for 8 years. Later, in order to refine his connoisseurship, he worked for 2 years at Itoyoshi. In 2013, he opened up his own restaurant Torasan. The place is known for its numerous regular customers who come for the chef's delicate dishes.

諸岡　昭二MOROKA SHOJI

Our chef's former occupation as an automotive engineer allowed him to transition brilliantly into a culinary architect who lets nothing go to waste.

He had originally worked as an engineer for the automobile industry, but after the Oil Crisis he switched careers to become a chef - a longtime passion. He ran his own food cart while attending culinary school, serving dark beer, which was quite rare at the time. He opened this establishment, "COTTON FIELDS", in 1980. He takes special care in selecting ingredients, and his motto is not to let a single part go to waste, with a special talent for bringing out the unique flavor of each component. He's most famous for his excellent spare ribs, garnished with a secret sauce he invented back in his food cart days.

龍　浩一RYU KOICHI

In the restaurant business for nearly 30 years. Now a chef who captivates many

When he was a student, Koichi Ryu began working in a restaurant without much serious thought. But he was so taken by the head chef there that he started on the culinary path at the age of 18. At one point, he almost threw in the towel but there was no way he could completely give up on the culinary world. It's been thirty years now since he first chose this career. After working at Hakata Saryo, Fugu Taisho, Moyai (small restaurant), and various other restaurants, Mr. Ryu is now the owner of Ryuichi in Zashonokuma.

Unforgettable enjoyment, a journey to the world of cuisine...

鈴木　克学SUZUKI YOSHITAKA

Aiming for a new, loved flavor in his native Hakata

He's loved eating since the beginning, and, a few years into being a cook after collecting experience in western and Italian restaurants, he had a fateful meeting with a certain bowl of ramen. From there, his course was decided. Returning to his native Hakata, he succeeded in developing through repeated trial and error a hitherto-untasted brand new flavor. Since then, he's earned the affection of many customers, and not just locals at that.
