斎藤章二SAITO SHOJI

The Chef's Recommendations

Upholding the name of the famous Futagoyama restaurant after 23 years in service, in a new independent venue.

Born on December 19th, 1958, in Hokkaido, this chef received his first kitchen knife as a child and never put it down. After initial training in sushi restaurants and other kitchens, he then proceeded to serve for 23 years as the chef of the famous Futagoyama restaurant, established more than 40 years ago. When Futagoyama shut down, he decided to continue the tradition by opening his own restaurant, Futayama Shoji, in October 2008. As fishing is his favorite hobby, his menus include his personal catches, as well as wild vegetables in the spring and handpicked mushrooms in the fall. Continuing in the footsteps of a long-tradition, he strives to bring the very best out of his ingredients.

紫藤　喜則SHITO YOSHINORI

The Chef's Recommendations

His feelings toward cuisine changing from an encounter with natural wines

Born 1975 and coming from Saitama, he began on the road of the chef at 24 and that of French cuisine at 28. Coming in contact with the charms of vin naturel at Le Cabaret in Yoyogi-Uehara, he found himself committed to natural wines. After training further at restaurants like the famed L'amitie in Takadanobaba, he opened Libertin in 2011. With the development of his career as chef and his knowledge of light natural wines, his feelings of something not additive but subtractive grow stronger, and his cookery transforms further into a simpler cuisine that better brings out the life of the ingredients.
