荻田 直紀OGITA NAOKI
The Chef's Recommendations -
In desire of the betterment of yakitori, the grilled chicken dish of the people of Japan
Coming from Kagawa, his family managed a restaurant and cookery was present nearby from his childhood onward. So it's only natural he came to love food and chose to work at a restaurant for his university part-time job. After graduation, he engaged in training at Japanese-style and Japanese traditional restaurants, realizing his long-sought independence after his experience at a yakitori (grilled chicken) shop. Yakitori has the potential to be a dish of national ranking; he wants to take this food of the people and elevate it even further through the addition of flavor, hospitality, and accommodation to his customers.
