His love of fishing when he was in university led him down the path to becoming a chef

The Chef's Recommendations

If I were to have a restaurant I'd have a sushi restaurant

Always in love with sushi, the owner desired to have a sushi restaurant of his own. His dream came true at age 30, setting up his own restaurant after going through much painful training. Bringing in fresh ingredients from fatty tuna from Shakotan, Hokkaido, to conger eel from Uchiurawan, the chef is especially picky when it comes to choosing ingredients, going as far as Kyushu depending on the ingredients.
