佐藤 光朗Mitsuo Sato
The Chef's Recommendations -
Making proper efforts to pursue a deliciousness hidden in the traditional dish.
Born in 1980 in Tokyo, he raised up watching his father who ran a pork cutlet restaurant. It was natural for him to help his father before going to school in his days as a student. After graduating from a university, he started working at [Sugita] to succeed his family business, then became the 2nd generation in 2011. He is modest to say that his restaurant is a small bistro in this town but still making efforts every day to be better than any other restaurant, and wishing the guests to say [though pork cutlet is a casual food, his dish is special].
