服部 公一HATTORI KOICHI
The Chef's Recommendations -
The traditional homemade food that he finally reached after traveling all over Spain.
He was born in Tokyo in 1979. He found employment for a period after graduating from college, but resolved to aim to become a chef. With just the clothes on his back, he went to Spain and perfected his skills over five and a half years in a total of eleven restaurants, from bars on the street to famous modern Spanish restaurants. He was particularly surprised by the homemade food that he encountered in the rural community of Catalonia. This surprise carried over to "Amets", which he opened soon after returning to Japan. He admired wild game so much that he obtained a hunting license by himself, and he is distinctly characterized by his speedy actions, as he says, "Once I think about it, I do it immediately."

He was drawn to the charms of French cooking, and his experience in famous restaurants has made him a powerful chef.
He was born in 1975 in Osaka. Although he went to a technical high school, he decided to pursue cooking-in both cases, because he enjoys making things. While learning the basics of service at a hotel, he studied cooking as hard as he could, aiming for places like the Riga Royal Hotel, and he got his dream assignment at the Restaurant Chambord, a famous restaurant known for tradition and formality. He had always hoped to become a French chef, and he fell in love with French food even more in that position, where he spent quality time working under a head chef he greatly admired. He has continued to achieve great things and gain experience since then.
