川内谷 一美Kazumi Kawauchiya
The Chef's Recommendations -
After hard training days, he was fully prepared to be independent.
He was born in 1971 in Hokkaido. Tokyo fascinated him a lot during his boyhood, which was why he went to Tokyo right after graduating from junior high school and started live-in training at a traditional Japanese restaurant. As the training was so hard, 4 out of 5 trainees quit in only 6 months. But he tried his hardest to learn the fundamentals of Japanese cuisine there for 7 years. After he got married and had a child, he moved to another restaurants such as a Japanese restaurant and izakaya (Japanese pub) and had further training. In 2012, he went independent and opened [Kazumiya], a compilation of his cooking career.
