吉田 良一Ryoichi Yoshida
-
Born at a sushi restaurant! He has helped his family for cooking, which naturally led him to the field of cooking.
He was born in Chiba prefecture. As his parents ran a sushi restaurant, he had been interested in cooking since he was small and helped the sushi restaurant. It was therefore natural for him to enter the field of cooking. After accumulating experiences at a Japanese restaurant in Tokyo and izakaya (Japanese style pub) in Kanagawa, he also had further training at his parents' sushi restaurant. When he became 25 years old, he went to Kushiro, Hokkaido where he had been fascinated. He was more fascinated by Kushiro after being familiar with the ingredients in Hokkaido such as local fish when he was working at a sushi restaurant in Kushiro. In 2003, he moved to Chitose, Hokkaido as he especially liked the area. He is currently working actively in Chitose at a popular restaurant loved by local people.
