Enjoy "Kushiage" (fried skewers), have fun with the chef, and understand its depth.
After graduating from culinary school, he hoped to become a patissier, so he began working at a French restaurant through an introduction from the school. Following that an acquaintance introduced me to a steakhouse. Ultimately, he wound up working at several different restaurants. When he turned 30, he began thinking about the chef he wanted to become. He started at a kushiage (fried skewers) restaurant. It was his first time interacting with customers at a counter. As a chef, there was nothing better than directly seeing a customer's reaction. 15 years has since passed and he has continued working as a kushiage chef.

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.
