He entered this world at the age of 23 and afterwards, joined the line of ‘Torishige' owners and decided on developing the art of grilling offal. His teachers were his grandfather, from the first generation and his father, from the second. Due to his father's sudden and early passing, he became the restaurant owner at a young age.
