蓮見 壽Hisashi Hasumi

A famous "udon critic" who became the owner of his own handmade udon restaurant.

Born on November 7th, 1952 in Saitama prefecture. As a boy, he "disliked" the udon made from dry noodles that was served at his home, and grew up to be a "udon critic." He was quite impressed after trying a package of "homemade wheat flour for udon" at the supermarket, and became addicting to making his own udon noodles. With over 10 years of udon critique under his belt, he was then able to not only converse with udon chefs he met in his travels as a customer, but as a fellow chef, enabling him to polish both his skills and tongue at the same time. Finally, he opened his own udon noodle restaurant in 2012.

服部 亨Toru Hattori

After a childhood spent at his mother's food stall, continuing her legacy was a natural choice

Born on March 2nd, 1948 in Kagoshima, he had a natural inclination to cook that stemmed from his experiences watching his mother manage a food stall that served karaage (deep-fried food) and onigiri (rice balls). With these formative experiences, he went on to open his current restaurant as a way to expand upon his mother's business. Although he is a veteran chef with over forty years of professional cooking experience, he has a surprisingly easy going personality that customers adore. And, to add yet another surprise, his menu offers a wide range of great food and alcohol pairings, despite the fact he never drinks a drop of alcohol himself.
