Aiming for a new, loved flavor in his native Hakata
He's loved eating since the beginning, and, a few years into being a cook after collecting experience in western and Italian restaurants, he had a fateful meeting with a certain bowl of ramen. From there, his course was decided. Returning to his native Hakata, he succeeded in developing through repeated trial and error a hitherto-untasted brand new flavor. Since then, he's earned the affection of many customers, and not just locals at that.

The Chef's Recommendations -
Upholding the name of the famous Futagoyama restaurant after 23 years in service, in a new independent venue.
Born on December 19th, 1958, in Hokkaido, this chef received his first kitchen knife as a child and never put it down. After initial training in sushi restaurants and other kitchens, he then proceeded to serve for 23 years as the chef of the famous Futagoyama restaurant, established more than 40 years ago. When Futagoyama shut down, he decided to continue the tradition by opening his own restaurant, Futayama Shoji, in October 2008. As fishing is his favorite hobby, his menus include his personal catches, as well as wild vegetables in the spring and handpicked mushrooms in the fall. Continuing in the footsteps of a long-tradition, he strives to bring the very best out of his ingredients.

His love of fishing when he was in university led him down the path to becoming a chef
Yoshihiro Kanno was born in Miyagi prefecture in 1975. He often went fishing with friends when he was a university student. Upon cooking the fish they caught and getting it just right, all of his friends would be delighted by the great taste. This experience made Yoshihiro think, "I want to get even better at cooking," and thus entered the Miyagi school of cooking and confectionery. He enjoyed acquiring various skills and knowledge and realized his calling to become a chef. After graduation he headed to Tokyo where he trained at a famous Japanese restaurant, before returning to Sendai. After having been the head chef at two restaurants, he landed his present role as head chef of Kokorozukushi Inase.

The Chef's Recommendations -
Shouldering the history of Japanese cooking and inheriting the legacy of first-class chefs.
Born in Tokyo in 1956. His grandfather worked as a first generation chef at Hoshigaoka, presided over by the famed artist Rosanjin Kitaoji, and in 1931 established Kappo Nakajima in Ginza.

Warmly receiving customers with a smile at Umaimon
He was born and raised in Fukushima, but left for Tokyo to train at a Japanese restaurant for 15 years before coming back to Fukushima to open Izakaya Umaimon at age 33. However, for a short while he relocated to Osaka, due to his shop being within the evacuation zone after the Great East Japan Earthquake of 2011. After that, because of his deep familiarity with Tokyo, he decided to set up shop in one of the city's lively downtown shopping districts, and in April of 2012 he opened up Izakaya Umaimon in the Kabukicho district of Shinjuku.

A career that granted her a chance to fulfill her dream of competing with culinary skills
She was born in Ehime prefecture and raised in Chiba prefecture. She majored in food science in college since she wanted to work in food production, but after graduation she went on to work as a civil servant for a period of time. However, she says that, "I wanted to be in a job that involved making food," so she devoted herself wholeheartedly to that dream when she turned 30. She studied Japanese cuisine at Ecole Tsuji Tokyo for a year, and after that she learned the basics of cooking at Matsushita in Waseda, and studied sake (Japanese rice wine) at Sasagin in Yoyogi-Uehara. She underwent further training at Ishii in Shimbashi, and then in 2010 she opened Ohama in Asagaya, which moved to Kamakura in 2014.

An encounter with subtle yet profoundly complex Japanese cuisine
His fascination with the delicate yet complex flavors of the Japanese cuisine he encountered during his part-time job at a Japanese restaurant led him down the path to becoming a chef. He studied pure, authentic Japanese cuisine before coming to work with us. Our establishment serves not only okonomiyaki and monjayaki (savory pancakes with fillings), but also full course meals that bring genuine Japanese cuisine to life. He cooks each day with the belief that he should pour his all into every meal he makes.

片山 義邦KATAYAMA YOSHIKUNI
The Chef's Recommendations -
After finishing his job as a businessman, decided to make living with Okonomiyaki.
I was born 1968, in Kagawa. When I quit being a salaryman, I chose the early retirement option of the company I was working for and decided to make my living making "okonomiyaki". After going around to try many restaurants, I chose to train at "Hassho", which was the most delicious. I continuously worked and gained experience under my strict teacher, and in the end, I inherited the restaurant from him when he retired. Under the teaching of "Never forget to concentrate on making delicious dishes, rather than to earn a lot of money", I dedicate myself to the grill for the many guests who kindly line up in front of my restaurant today.

油井 隆一YUI RYUICHI
The Chef's Recommendations -
A Renowned Chef, Whose Career Began With Western Food
Mr. Yui was born in 1942 and grew up in Tokyo. Because he was acquainted with French food from a young age due to his mother's influence and also because he is left-handed, which is unusual for a sushi chef, his professional cooking career started with Western food at "Tokyo Kaikan." After completing his training, Mr. Yui returned to his birthplace and parents' home, "Kizushi" in Tokyo's Ningyocho, where he started from the lower ranks, acquiring the skills to become a sushi chef. Supplementing the traditions of Edo-style sushi with his skills in Western cuisine, Chef Yui is a leader in Tokyo's culinary scene.
