The Chef's Recommendations -
Growing up close to the world of cooking led to the decision to become a chef at age 15.
Mr. Kawano was born in 1983 in Fukuoka Prefecture. His parents worked in the food industry, so he grew up close to the world of cooking. He started on the path of becoming a chef after graduating from junior high school, when he began working at several kappo (casual course-style Japanese cuisine) restaurants to brush up on his skills, including the long-established Japanese restaurant Nadaman. At its opening in 2020, he became the head chef of Kairi. He has created an exquisite menu for the restaurant, with dishes such as their signature sushi and teppanyaki (iron griddle grilling) made with premium ingredients. It has garnered attention from many people thanks to the ingredient selection and gorgeous presentation, laid out in a manner that can only be seen in Japanese cooking.

佐藤 光朗Mitsuo Sato
The Chef's Recommendations -
Making proper efforts to pursue a deliciousness hidden in the traditional dish.
Born in 1980 in Tokyo, he raised up watching his father who ran a pork cutlet restaurant. It was natural for him to help his father before going to school in his days as a student. After graduating from a university, he started working at [Sugita] to succeed his family business, then became the 2nd generation in 2011. He is modest to say that his restaurant is a small bistro in this town but still making efforts every day to be better than any other restaurant, and wishing the guests to say [though pork cutlet is a casual food, his dish is special].
