柴田 久人Hisato Shibata

The Chef's Recommendations

The thing that prompted him to become a chef was hearing [that was delicious] from customers at a restaurant he was working at part-time

Born in Kanagawa Prefecture in January 1970. During his student years, he worked part-time at [Soshu Torigin.] He first thought of learning how to cook in earnest when customers told him that the food he made was delicious. After that, he enrolled in culinary school in Tokyo, where he learned the fundamentals and was able to work with various culinary genres. After graduation, he considered working at other places, but had a strong attachment to [Soshu Torigin] so he returned to Kanagawa, where he has remained committed to the management, procurement, and quality of [food] ever since.

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.

川久保 美紀KAWAKUBO MINORI

Cooking is a profession that allows me to learn a lot from my customers, something for which I am truly grateful.

Born in Kanagawa, in a family of shopkeepers, he learned to love customer service from a very early age. Offering the best service and the freshest products led him to develop an interest in stock-less restaurants, and 7 years ago, to go from a position of a sales clerk in a small retail shop to that of hall staff in a Western restaurant. He started serving at the Onzoshi Kiyoyasutei Kamakura Prince Hotel one and a half years ago, and describes himself as deeply motivated by his trade, which allows him to learn important things from his customers and to explore the fascinating use of seasonal ingredients in Japanese cuisine.

小倉 哲OGURA SATOSHI

Learning the joy of cooking from a Chinese chef, and its depth from a Japanese master.

Born in 1973 in Chiba Prefecture, his inspiration for pursuing this path was a Chinese chef who showed him the joy of cooking at the restaurant where he worked part-time as a high school freshman. He later became the apprentice of a Japanese chef while working at another restaurant. Although the chef was a well-rounded master who had studied abroad, he still said "Nothing beats Japanese beef." Those words made a deep impression on Mr. Ogura.

藤本FUJIMOTO

He started in the world of yakiniku (grilled meat) through a meeting with a friend

Chef Fujimoto, from Yokohama City, is a long serving veteran-this year is his 37th. He found employment in the yakiniku business partially through the invitation of a friend. He has devoted himself to this business ever since. Although he temporarily left Yakiniku Restaurant Konandai Kannaien, this year will mark about 13 years since his return. With yakiniku, it is hard to choose ingredients because the taste of the ingredients directly comes through. Also, everyone has different preferences, so it is extremely difficult to flavor things that suit everyone. Successfully facing this difficulty, he is building a thriving restaurant.

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.
