加藤 聡Satoshi Kato
-
Charmed by fish, Mr. Kato has followed the path of life as a sushi chef.
He was born in 1971 in Kanagawa. Born to a long family line of fishermen, he has been interested in fish since he was young. Because his family was often busy, he had many chances to cook in their place, and he was happy to please them with his cooking. His starting point as a chef was at the restaurant Sushitatsu in his hometown when he was 16 years old. Later on, at the age of 25, he came to Tokyo. In 2017, he opened Sakurazaka Kato in Akasaka. He shut down this restaurant during the COVID-19 pandemic but, blessed by fate, opened another restaurant, Sushi JIN-È. JIN-È is the trade name of the fishery business run by Mr. Kato's relatives, which he had planned to use someday as the name of his restaurant.
