Say "Sendai" and think "beef tongue" - say "beef tongue" and think "Rikyu"!
For Chef Koyama, borne and raised in Sendai, beef tongue is one of his most beloved foods. He was a huge fan of Rikyu, saying "It was my favorite restaurant. Not only the grilled beef tongue, but also the side dishes were great and plentiful." After four years amassing experience in a Japanese pub kitchen, he made his way to his much-loved Rikyu. Everyday he's striving so as many people as possible can savor the flavor that can only be found here.

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.

北島 素幸KITAJIMA MOTOYUKI
The Chef's Recommendations -
With his career spanning nearly half a century, his role in developing French cuisine in Japan has been pivotal
He was born in 1951 in Fukuoka prefecture. He started his culinary career when he was 18, after entering "Royal" in Fukuoka. He was deeply impressed by the dessert buffets at "Regence" in Roppongi, which were still rare at that time, and he also trained as a patisserie. He went to France in 1977, and studied for five years at restaurants such as "Troisgros", and "Georges Blanc", being impressed once again by the culture of French cuisine that he experienced in the country itself. After returning to Japan, he held successive posts as a chef in "De Roanne" in Kyobashi, and "Pantagruel" in Akasaka. He opened "Kitajimatei" in 1990.

The beginning was simple. After that, his efforts have not ceased.
He was born in 1973 in Kyoto. Ever since he was a child, he dreamed of being a chef. He thought that their white coats were smart, and that working as a chef on a cruise liner looked fun. Rather than letting this remain as just a dream, he worked consistently to realize it and to get to where he is today.
