坂田 慎吾SAKATA SHINGO
The Chef's Recommendations -
Going forward along his dream culinary path in a truly lively bar, coupled with fresh fish
He was born in Kumamoto prefecture in 1982. He loved cooking since he was young, and has had experience working as a part-timer at a small local restaurant in high school and an izakaya (Japanese-style bar) in college. After that, he went down the path of an office worker for a time without forgetting his culinary dream, and went to Tokyo when he was 24. He found employment at companies operating French and Italian restaurants in Yokohama, and studied diligently for about six years at two restaurants. He entered "El Pulpo" in 2011. Although this is his first time at a Spanish bar, his eyes have been opened to the joy that running a bar provides as well. As the chef now, he handles delicious, fresh fish daily.

The Chef's Recommendations -
A chef who layers the flavors of the four seasons and the encounters between people

After training at a ryotei (traditional Japanese restaurant) in Osaka that specialized in catering, he worked for five years at Gyozantei in Miyazaki before moving to Tokyo in order to establish the second branch of that restaurant in the Akasaka neighborhood. He worked for about seven years at the Akasaka store before setting out on his own. It has been 16 years since he first opened Kasane.

田辺 年男TANABE TOSHIO
The Chef's Recommendations -
From boxer to owner of oden (hot pot dish) stall. And then to French cuisine, in pursuit of the world stage…
He was born in Ibaraki prefecture in 1949. When he was in college, he was selected as one of the candidates to compete in gymnastics for the Olympics, and after graduating, he became a ranked professional boxer in Japan. After wrecking his body and giving up on boxing, he made a 180 degree turn and opened an oden (hot pot dish) stall. However, he says, "That would never allow me to aim for the world stage," and entered the world of French cuisine. He underwent training at a restaurant in Tokyo before going to France. After perfecting his skills for two years in places such as restaurants with three Michelin stars, he returned to Japan, and in 1988, he opened "A Ta Goul" in Ebisu. He took the opportunity to rename his restaurant to "Ne Quittez Pas" when he moved to Gotanda.

A chef whose spirit is formed on the foundation of strong Japanese cuisine fundamentals interwoven with seasonal delights
After seeing the old style restaurant "Kicho" on TV, he yearned to work at such a place, and enrolled in culinary school.

He selects organic rice and vegetables from his hometown, and goes to markets to personally pick out the freshest ingredients, allowing customers to experience the full flavor of each season.

Nothing says Sendai like gyutan (beef tongue)!
Nothing says Sendai like gyutan (beef tongue)! Interested in local ingredients, he took a job at Rikyu where he is now in charge of the grill. His motto is to take high quality ingredients and carefully grill them to perfection. "Grilling gyutan is fairly straightforward, and yet the flavor differs with each chef. I find that fascinating," Takashi remarks, as he affectionately tends the grill.
