Mr. Kawakami believes that the word "delicious" is fundamental for chefs and businesses.
He was born in 1975 in Toyama. His love of food since childhood led him into a cooking career. In Toyama, blessed with food, he was trained at two restaurants, including a Japanese kappo cuisine restaurant, then became independent. In February 2020, he opened a new restaurant [shirohacha koshitsu annex] as a manager. He has been paying special attention to the delicate balance of Japanese cuisine and the needs of guests while polishing his skills. He says the fundamental thing to being a chef is to hear the words "delicious" and "would like to come back," and that is a motto for running a business.
