Japanese sake and the stars. A bartender who enjoys and creates what he likes.
Mr. Shiraishi was born in 1977 in Chiba. Because he enjoys making drinks, he came to Tokyo when he was 21 and started walking the path of the bartender. While doing his work, he would feel the appeal of talking to guests over the counter, so he started wanting to open his own restaurant. He devoted himself to his studies and struck out independently when he was 27. He tried to make a restaurant where customers could enjoy a Planetarium, which he always liked, along with drinks, so he opened Planetarium BAR. As the owner, he continues to stand in his bar daily so guests can enjoy a special time.
