小笹 正義Masayoshi Ozasa
The Chef's Recommendations -
Mr. Ozasa expresses the producer's thoughts while preserving the traditions passed down from generation to generation.
Mr. Ozasa expresses the producer's thoughts while preserving the traditions passed down from generation to generation. Grew up watching his grandfather and father, who ran Kyo Ryori Matsusyo. The restaurant and cooking had been familiar to him since childhood, but it was when he graduated from high school that he made the decision to take over the restaurant. He went on to a culinary school and trained at a Japanese restaurant in Kyoto for three years after graduation. Joined his family's restaurant in 2005 and has served as the fourth-generation chef since 2018. He keeps in mind to carefully prepare his dishes so that the producer's thoughts can be expressed in each one.

T・ヨッコT. Yokko
The Chef's Recommendations -
There are reasons why you are as healthy as you are.
This is the idea that the food that is put into their body will have the greatest effect on the lifestyle of a person over a long period of time--from when they are a baby until when they reach adulthood. An environment where cooking is close to her has been with her for as long as she can remember. And thankfully, she says, she was very healthy. Her unchanging desire is to pass on things that she has received.
