The chef expresses the sense of the season through his cuisine.

Currently he is creating dishes respecting the original tastes of the ingredients and the sense of the season.

阿部 友彦ABE TOMOHIRO
The Chef's Recommendations -
From Italian food to yakitori, he closed his own shop to train at a famous restaurant
He was born in Niigata prefecture in 1984. After graduating from culinary school, he began his culinary career as a chef at "Kihachi". When he was just 23 years old, he opened an Italian dining restaurant in Akabane, but a turning point suddenly reached him. While he was casually imagining his future, what surfaced clearly in his head was, as he says, "The image of a yakitori (grilled chicken) craftsman standing diligently in front of a small grill." He worked as an apprentice at "Torishiki" when he was 28. After about a year and a half years of training, he opened "gallus" in June 2013 and has been in charge of it since then.

中嶋 貞治Sadaharu Nakajima
The Chef's Recommendations -
Shouldering the history of Japanese cooking and inheriting the legacy of first-class chefs.
Born in Tokyo in 1956. His grandfather worked as a first generation chef at Hoshigaoka, presided over by the famed artist Rosanjin Kitaoji, and in 1931 established Kappo Nakajima in Ginza. His father opened the independently-affiliated Shinjuku Kappo Nakajima, and Mr. Nakajima himself joined the shop in 1980 after training in Kyoto. Succeeding the culinary philosophy of his father, his grandfather and Rosanjin, he stands upon the fundamental traditions of Kansai (western Japanese) traditional cooking, all while exercising creativity in the development of new dishes. With his passion for food education, he has also taken on other roles such as the president of the Chojin ("superman") Chef's Club and is active across many fields.
