渡邊 直博WATANABE NAOHIRO

A meeting with Chef Okamoto at Fujidaya, here in the world of cuisine he's longed after since childhood

Born in 1978 and coming from Yamanashi, his father was a cook of Japanese cuisine and because of this he had an interest in food from an early age, leaping into the world of cuisine when he graduated from high school. Building up his skillset at small restaurants, hotels, Japanese restaurant inns, and the like, he then spent three and a half years at Fujidaya, meeting with owner Okamoto at that time. From the start-up of La BOMBANCE in 2004, he's been in the kitchen as head chef.

竹内 徹平TAKEUCHI TEPPEI

The Chef's Recommendations

Switched from Being a Chef Specializing in Japanese Cuisine to a Sake Professional

He was born in Oita, Japan in 1975. While he was originally trained as a chef specializing in Japanese cuisine, his eyes were opened to Japanese sake as well when he tried sake named Tatsuriki at a neighborhood sake shop. He took a license of sake sommelier, and his frequent interactions with sake brewers resulted in an obsession with sake. At first, he was a constant customer of [Washubar Kuri], and later he was employed at its sister shop in Shinbashi. He has been manager of [Washubar Kuri] since October 2012 where he is both a sake sommelier and chef.

The Chef's Recommendations

Upholding the name of the famous Futagoyama restaurant after 23 years in service, in a new independent venue.

Born on December 19th, 1958, in Hokkaido, this chef received his first kitchen knife as a child and never put it down. After initial training in sushi restaurants and other kitchens, he then proceeded to serve for 23 years as the chef of the famous Futagoyama restaurant, established more than 40 years ago. When Futagoyama shut down, he decided to continue the tradition by opening his own restaurant, Futayama Shoji, in October 2008. As fishing is his favorite hobby, his menus include his personal catches, as well as wild vegetables in the spring and handpicked mushrooms in the fall. Continuing in the footsteps of a long-tradition, he strives to bring the very best out of his ingredients.

The chef strives everyday to make his restaurant an energizing place for his customers.

Born in1971, in Yamanashi prefecture, the chef has always loved cooking since his childhood. With his experience working at a yakiniku (Japanese BBQ) restaurant, he came to think, "If I were to have a job for life, I'd like to become a chef who makes people happy." As he was especially charmed with yakiniku, which seemed to invigorate people, he decided to work at a yakiniku restaurant in Yokohama when he was 20. After that, he opened up his own restaurant, Yakiniku Himawari Tei. He makes his own tare (sauce) and kimchi (pickled cabbage), and provides delicious meat for a reasonable price.

A career that granted her a chance to fulfill her dream of competing with culinary skills

She majored in food science in college since she wanted to work in food production, but after graduation she went on to work as a civil servant for a period of time.
