中島 康晴Yasuharu Nakajima
-
Yasuharu Nakajima serves up Hokkaido soul food using only the finest ingredients sourced from the very same island he calls home.
Although he was born in Kyoto on April 12th, 1961, Yasuharu Nakajima moved to Sapporo when he was just 100 days old. His first encounter with the restaurant business was when he got a job in one while still a student, although he then went on to work in an unrelated sector for many years. However, Genghis Khan, Hokkaido's soul food, managed to bring him back to the culinary world. Nakajima wanted to open a restaurant that specialized in Hokkaido-bred lamb, so he decided his first step would be to raise his own sheep. Over a period of years, he slowly built up his flock until nine years later in 2012, when he was finally able to open his restaurant, Genghis Khan Hitsujikai no Mise "Itadakimasu". As an adult who has a responsibility towards food, Nakajima also runs projects to strengthen ties with children.

甲斐Kai
-
Using the high expectations and hopes of those around him as a source of motivation, he forges his own path
He was born in Oita Prefecture in 1970. His parents ran a “fugu (blowfish) restaurant and Japanese restaurant” and he grew up in a family of dyed-in-the-wool chefs. As he was raised in constant contact with the culinary world and delicious food from early on, he was naturally aware of the fact that he too would become a chef. After graduating from university, he studied mainly fugu and Japanese dishes, then, in his 30s, sought to make a further leap in his development and gave Western cuisine a try. His insatiably curious mind, which did not stop at Japanese cuisine, continues to create new and spirited dishes.
