加藤 邦彦KATO KUNIHIKO
The Chef's Recommendations -
A love for large shellfish, leading him into the culinary world
He was born in Miyagi prefecture in 1977. He started his career as a chef by entering "Kani Doraku" for the simple reason that he loved prawns and crabs. After that, he trained at a ryotei (traditional, luxurious Japanese restaurant) in Kyoto for three and a half years in order to learn the basics of Japanese cuisine, and polished his skills for three years at a Japanese restaurant handling natural prawns in New Zealand. After returning to Japan, he spent two and a half years at the Chinese restaurant "Renge" in Shinjuku. "Ubuka" was opened in 2012. While he sticks to the basics of Japanese cuisine, he brings out the charm of shellfish, sometimes using bold culinary techniques.
