小野田 弘毅Hiroki Onoda
-
Mr. Onoda's interest in food began at an early age and led him to become a chef.
He was born in 1958 in Tsukiji, Tokyo. With a father who was a wholesaler, he was exposed to food from an early age and became a chef. While working hard at a Japanese restaurant, he encountered Bian when things were going differently than expected. It has about eight branches in Tokyo, but the Yokohama branch is characterized by its space. Although people tend to imagine teppanyaki as a style where food is grilled right before them, Onoda says that his restaurant's style of serving food in private rooms results from consideration for the customers' comfort.

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.
