The Chef's Recommendations

Deeply moved by the flavors he encountered at a wellknown former restaurant, he chose the world of Chinese cuisine without hesitation

Born in Tokyo in 1964. When he was in elementary school his father took him to the former famous chinese restaurant Dai Ichiro. The impact of the shark fin soup he had there would lead him to choose his career path later. From the age of 21 he trained at a Shanghai-style restaurant in the city, and at the age of 28 he opened Ryuen in his native Asakusa. At first it was mainly a noodle shop, but after exchanging ideas with chefs of specializing in a variety of cuisines, it changed into its present creative Chinese food style. It has been open for 20 years now and it continues to evolve.
