After becoming independent, she began inviting friends to her house to eat her home cooking, and this inspired her to start "Iemeshi Shushu" in 2004, specializing in home-style cooking difficult to come upon for the modern city dweller. Modest and unpretentious, she has earned the trust of the world-weary through her fine cooking.

Depth that even a connoisseur can taste.
Wanting to use my hands to make a living, I entered the food industry because of my interest in cuisine. With over 20 years since we opened Rikyu, you'll soon find out why connoisseurs say, "When it comes to grilled beef tongue, one seeks the modest sensitivity that's a product of a single coal in the fire. The flavorful depth of each ingredient can change with the chef."

By making sure ingredients change every day, there is always an eye on consistent quality.

角田 幹男KAKUTA MIKIO
The Chef's Recommendations -
A chef whose spirit is formed on the foundation of strong Japanese cuisine fundamentals interwoven with seasonal delights
After seeing the old style restaurant "Kicho" on TV, he yearned to work at such a place, and enrolled in culinary school. After graduating he got a job at an old style restaurant called Kikumi in Akasaka. After polishing his Japanese cuisine skills at "Kobori" in Akasaka, "Hamaisihi", a fancy restaurant in Ginza, and "Narita View Hotel", he established his own restaurant. He is very picky about the ingredients he uses. He selects organic rice and vegetables from his hometown, and goes to markets to personally pick out the freshest ingredients, allowing customers to experience the full flavor of each season.

Since deeply enjoying chicken as a child, he headed straight on the path to being a chef.
A chef with strong roots, his father worked as head chef of Tokyo Kaikan and cooked chicken roasts on his days off.

Demonstrating the knowledge and techniques built up over three generations
Mr. Yakou's grandfather was a maker of tempura who opened an establishment in Ginza named "Naruto", this name being linked to his birthplace, Awaji Island. His father, Yoshio Yakou, struck out on his own, leaving "Naruto" and establishing in 1962 his own restaurant named "Akashi". This name was a reference to being on the opposite side of the Naruto Strait. Having grown up watching this family, Mr. Yakou felt he wanted to become a chef, so he trained with his father to develop his skills. He has reached such a high level of mastery in the preparation of pufferfish that he currently serves as an examiner for the licensing of pufferfish chefs.
