瀧井 研哉KENYA TAKII
The Chef's Recommendations -
Fourth-generation cook in a long-established restaurant, this chef picked up the torch of a traditional taste, now over 120 years old.
Born in Kyoto in 1975. The culinary arts played a very important part in the environment he grew up in, and He was familiarized with cooking from a very early age. He'd initially embarked on a different path, and yet couldn't quite accept that this long culinary tradition passed on through so many generations would simply end with him… And this daunting thought eventually led him to become a cook himself. Kyoto cuisine has many aficionados, it is acclaimed for the respectful way fresh ingredients are prepared, to craft simple dishes that bring out the best of their natural taste. He is currently the fourth generation chef of the Pontocho-takara, preserving the traditional flavors of a long-established landmark.
