I am a professional chef with 8 years of experience working in luxury 5-star hotels and professional kitchens. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to train and work under Michelin-starred chefs, gaining experience in high-level culinary techniques, kitchen operations, and food presentation. As a Japanese chef, I am passionate about sharing authentic Japanese cuisine and helping people understand both the techniques and cultural traditions behind each dish. My classes are designed to be approachable, interactive, and enjoyable for cooks of all skill levels. I believe cooking is one of the best ways to connect with culture. Through my classes, participants can cook alongside me, ask questions, learn professional tips, and gain the confidence to recreate Japanese dishes at home. Whether you are new to Japanese cooking or looking to refine your skills, I aim to create a fun and engaging learning experience for everyone.
