宮本 義隆MIYAMOTO YOSHITAKA
The Chef's Recommendations -
The local flavor and cooking philosophy learned at a small restaurant in northern Italy
He was born in Kanagawa prefecture in 1974. He chose to take on Italian cooking under the influence of his brother, Munetaka, who entered the culinary world before him. He underwent training at a famous restaurant in Tokyo before going to Italy in 1999. He perfected his skills there for seven years, with a focus on the northernmost region of Trentino-Alto Adige. While he was there, he ventured into choosing a small restaurant so as to personally experience life in Italy at the location itself. The skills that he learned there, together with the cooking philosophy prized in the area, also show themselves in "ICARO", which he opened with his brother after returning to Japan.

山本 香代子YAMAMOTO KAYOKO
The Chef's Recommendations -
Made to be a meal to remember
My parents ran a teppanyaki and okonomiyaki store from their home, so it was there I learned how to think about the food and beverage industry and how to run a business. This is a favorite place for lovers of internal organ meats. The chef prepares everything in advance, so by learning through imitation, in my own way through self-study and through trial and error, I became a master at making delicious food. With my pet name of Okaasan (mother) and good manners, there are many fans of my character which is overflowing with kindness.
