Keeping the words "learn from the past" close to his heart and valuing the traditions of Japanese cuisine, he naturally started his career as a chef
Born in Ehime prefecture on August 20, 1975, he grew up in a family who were running Ajisho. So, from a young age, he understood from experience both the severity and joy felt as a chef. Although he had his heart set on becoming a stockbroker while studying at college, he began his career as a chef in order to succeed his father. After graduating from college, he trained in Japanese cuisine and sushi and headed to Ajisho 12 years ago. He continues with devotion every day to being the chef he visualized himself as at a young age, while valuing the traditions and the words "learn from the past" close to his heart.

After finishing school in China, I started working at a restaurant.
From the age of 20, I trained at Chinese restaurants and worked for 20 years in China. At the time it was tough, but I started with the fundamentals of Chinese cuisine. After this, I came to Japan and worked at a restaurant in Yokohama Chinatown where I offered up Chinese food to Japanese customers. In 2012, I achieved my dream of opening my own restaurant, Kokien, right here in Yokohama Chinatown. I would love for you to come and try my authentic Chinese dishes.

玉城 利也TAMASHIRO TOSHIYA
The Chef's Recommendations -
His own love of Okinawan soba motivated him to pursue the perfect dish
Born in Okinawa in 1985, our chef was raised on Okinawan soba and his love for it is unmatched. His fascination with the dish grew as he went from restaurant to restaurant, observing differences in flavor, until at last he decided to become a chef himself. Of particular importance to him is the balance of bonito and pork in flavoring the dashi broth. His aim is a taste that is refreshing, yet never boring, and he devotes himself wholeheartedly to that pursuit to this day.

Captivated by the appeal of beef tongue
He first encountered beef tongue when he began working part time at Rikyu. Struck by how delicious beef tongue is, he set his heart upon his current trade. He hopes that many customers will be moved by the taste of the meat too! In order to serve up the meat in top condition, with just a hint of pinkness remaining, he stands at the grill with watchful eyes. He says, "I pay close attention to cooking it just the right amount."

A pure and simple Izakaya! Nothing pleases us more than making our customers happy.

梅田 真志UMEDA SHINJI
The Chef's Recommendations -
Realising his father's greatness and his own culinary aspirations on leaving Hiroshima.
Shinji Umeda was born on March 17th, 1982. He learned much while working a part-time job at a restaurant. The izakaya (Japanese pub) he worked in at that time had an open kitchen, and during everything he did there, from the difficulty of conversing with customers to gaining more knowledge about cooking, he thought to himself "Dad did it like this, and at that time he spoke about this," and the image of his father's face was constantly on his mind. Shinji is currently training at his father's restaurant, studying the culinary arts so that he may one day open his own restaurant full of smiling, satisfied customers.

The influence of his chef father led him down the same path
Our chef Sano was raised looking up to his chef father from the time he was a child. Seeing how delighted people were when they ate his father's food, he thought, "Someday, I want to make people happy like that with my own cooking," which led him down the same path. Afterwards he built up experience at various Italian restaurants, before opening this establishment. His memories of his father's cooking still form the foundation for Sano's own culinary style even now.
