斉藤 誠Makoto Saito
The Chef's Recommendations -
A chef who creates a refined flavor by using the knowledge and techniques he has built up over the years.
He was born in Miyagi Prefecture on March 7, 1959. After graduating high school, he learned the basics of Chinese cuisine at a hotel in Sendai City, as well as in a Chinese restaurant in Gifu. Afterwards, he was made the Assistant Head Chef at a rather famous hotel's Chinese restaurant. Intending to set out on his own, he then furthered his craft in Yokohama's Chinatown area and finally in 1989, he opened [Chinese Restaurant Taigen] in Hakone. As a result of feeling a bit cramped there, he reopened the shop in 2000 in Sengokubara. From there, he gained popularity thanks to word of mouth from my regular customers.
