The Chef's Recommendations -
A classic restaurant run by an eighthgeneration soba artist who creates stylish cuisine out of buckwheat.
From Tokyo. He is the eighth generation to manage the family soba (buckwheat noodles) restaurant. He intended to continue the family business after graduating from university, but decided to study Japanese cuisine beyond soba noodles at Ginza's Rokusantei in order to bring the restaurant into a new age. Afterward, he worked concurrently at both a Japanese culinary inn in Atami and a catering fish market, studying the fundamentals of Japanese cuisine and fish wholesaling. He studied at the sushi shop Aoyagi in Tokyo and handmade soba restaurants-then returned to take over Asada, where he remains today.

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.

His dream to become a chef came true. Now he makes passionate Italian cuisine in a brand new style
He was born in 1979 in Okayama prefecture. He often went out to eat with his parents as a child, and soon he secretly longed to become a chef in the future. That dream come true, when after graduating from the Hattori School of Nutrition at the age of 18, he honed his cooking skills in Tokyo at Italian restaurants and French restaurants in hotels. After that he encountered "Canoviano", and Chef Uetake at our main store in Daikanyama took him under his wing. Still greatly influenced by Chef Uetake, our chef makes every effort to produce many dishes that show the true worth of Italian cooking.
