Demonstrating the knowledge and techniques built up over three generations
Mr. Yakou's grandfather was a maker of tempura who opened an establishment in Ginza named "Naruto", this name being linked to his birthplace, Awaji Island. His father, Yoshio Yakou, struck out on his own, leaving "Naruto" and establishing in 1962 his own restaurant named "Akashi". This name was a reference to being on the opposite side of the Naruto Strait. Having grown up watching this family, Mr. Yakou felt he wanted to become a chef, so he trained with his father to develop his skills. He has reached such a high level of mastery in the preparation of pufferfish that he currently serves as an examiner for the licensing of pufferfish chefs.
