小笠原 敦OGASAWARA ATSUSHI
The Chef's Recommendations -
Aiming for Japan's ultimate pizza instead of an Italian replica
He was born in Chiba prefecture in 1965. He was impressed by the Neapolitan pizza that he encountered by chance on a vacation, and decided to change to a pizza artisan. After that, one of his connections gave him a chance to go to the island of Sicily, and after returning to Japan in 2001, he opened "Sisiliya" in Yokohama. In order to create the ultimate pizza in Japan different from that in Italy, he adjusted everything from the flour and water to the temperature and humidity in a trial-and-error process. The current flavor is largely a result of self-learning from this repeated process. Subsequently, he also obtained the maestro qualification from the Associazione Pizzaiuoli Napoletani in Giappone.
