小高 孝之ODAKA TAKAYUKI
The Chef's Recommendations -
Four generations of soba chefs from his family have run this restaurant.
Born in 1965, in Tokyo. By the time he was a junior high school student he had already decided to become a soba chef, and after graduating from college he started training at Kanda Matsuya. Along with his father, the other senior members of staff taught him soba making techniques and how the shop was run. It would take ten years of work before he was able to do everything. As a soba chef, and a man inheriting the restaurant from the generations before him, he has the flexibility to ensure that the traditional taste and style of Kanda Matsuya is maintained, while also looking towards new things.

His lifework is maintaining and developing the restaurant's recipes that has been handed down for a long time.
He was born in Tokyo in 1944. His father ran a casual restaurant in Nihonbashi, and he set his sights on becoming a chef ever since he was little, as he says, "In the past, taking over the family business was a given, so I never thought about any other paths." At the age of 20, he firstly trained at a Japanese restaurant. After thoroughly learning the basics of Japanese cuisine and how to pick fresh fish from the market, he joined "Tonkatsu Yachiyo", where his father handled the kitchen. Until now, for nearly 50 years since that day, he has been wholeheartedly studying about how to fry the best ingredients into delicious dishes.

The parttime job that he had at an izakaya when he was a high school student inspired him to become a chef.
The reason why he decided to get a part-time job in an izakaya (Japanese pub restaurant) was that he wanted to eat the free food. It may not have been the most romantic reason, but this is what led to his career in the restaurant business. Through his part-time job he learned how much fun cooking was, and decided to attend catering college. At college he met fellow students who would play an important part in shaping his future career. After graduating, he spent time working in three different Japanese restaurants. After working for ten years, he and his friends from college opened "Jounetsu Shokusai Kyoshoku". Later, in 2014, they opened "Fujiya Kyoshoku".
