清水 真樹SHIMIZU MASAKI
-
Wanting to become an artisan from a young age, he has taken his place in the world of cuisine
He pursued the world of cuisine because he loved eating as a child and had dreamed of being an artisan ever since he was young. He also gained a strong interest in cooking through his mother who was a very good cook. He opened his own restaurant in 2000 after training at Chinzanso and the restaurant Rezzo in Kyodo. He continues to provide fastidiously prepared cuisine with choice ingredients; yet, you can still visit Trattoria 522 as an everyday restaurant.

Enjoy "Kushiage" (fried skewers), have fun with the chef, and understand its depth.
After graduating from culinary school, he hoped to become a patissier, so he began working at a French restaurant through an introduction from the school. Following that an acquaintance introduced me to a steakhouse. Ultimately, he wound up working at several different restaurants. When he turned 30, he began thinking about the chef he wanted to become. He started at a kushiage (fried skewers) restaurant. It was his first time interacting with customers at a counter. As a chef, there was nothing better than directly seeing a customer's reaction. 15 years has since passed and he has continued working as a kushiage chef.
