A chef who welcomes diners with heartfelt service and carefully prepared food.
Mr. Kirimura was born in December of 1980 and grew up in Oita Prefecture. His family ran a yakiniku (grilled meat) restaurant during his childhood, which offered him a chance to learn about butchering and meat preparation. He took his first genuine steps to becoming a chef as a way to carry on the characteristic flavors of authentic Korean dishes like kimchi and namul. After spending close to six years working at various restaurants throughout Fukuoka, he came back to his parents' yakiniku restaurant to handle the kitchen and hospitality, as well some management duties. Presently at Oniku Shoan Harubina, he offers guests profoundly flavorful dishes with expertly prepared meat.
