林 祐司HAYASHI YUJI
The Chef's Recommendations -
I proceeded to this path wishing to experience the family business, Oysterbar.
He was born on April 14th, 1958, in Miyajima, Hiroshima. His parents ran an oyster bar, and since childhood he has been familiar with the world of food.

Warmly receiving customers with a smile at Umaimon
He was born and raised in Fukushima, but left for Tokyo to train at a Japanese restaurant for 15 years before coming back to Fukushima to open Izakaya Umaimon at age 33. However, for a short while he relocated to Osaka, due to his shop being within the evacuation zone after the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011. After that, because of his deep familiarity with Tokyo, he decided to set up shop in one of the city's lively downtown shopping districts, and in April of 2012 he opened up Izakaya Umaimon in the Kabukicho district of Shinjuku.

紺野 真KONNO MAKOTO
The Chef's Recommendations -
The encounter with natural wine greatly influenced his restaurant's core principles after setting out on his own
He was born in Tokyo in 1969. He went to America during his schooling days, and an experience at a part-time job in a restaurant gave him the motivation to enter this industry.

The Chef's Recommendations -
Our chef has an excellent command of both traditional techniques and his own unique twists. Every piece of sushi is a little taste of heaven
He was born in 1964 in Shiga prefecture. His parents ran a sushi shop for over 40 years. Taken with the Edo-style techniques and flavors, he often visited Tokyo, and learned the skills of a number of famous restaurants, before fulfilling his desire to open his own restaurant in Gion in 2007. He preserves traditional techniques, letting his signature eggs sit overnight after frying them, and he uses his own tricks to perfect his pickles and boiled-down sake, offering the Matsudaya version of Edo-style sushi. His motto is "make the people of the world smile with sushi". He spent a year in New York and made the best of that experience, and is now a well-respected authority on how to serve foreign customers.
