About us
After graduating from Kyoto Culinary Institute, I gained experience as a vegetable wholesaler at the Kyoto Central Market and have worked in restaurants in Kyoto for over 25 years. I have lived in Arashiyama for 10 years and used to grow vegetables in the neighborhood. I am particular about ingredients in my cooking and will pass on my passion for making the most of local and seasonal vegetables.

I was born and raised in Kyoto and still live in my hometown. I love the nature here and am always healed. I enjoy a waik with my dog Sasuke in the nearby park. I especially love vegetables and try to eat a healthy diet by incorporating them into a variety of dishes every day. This year marks my 10th year working as a home care worker. I find it rewarding to support the lives of many people through my work as a caregiver.

Our Thoughts
Through our food, we want to connect with the people of the earth and the world so that we can all get along and live in peace and tranquility. From what we have gained from our involvement in food, we feel it is our important mission to help children in need of food and to continue making earth-friendly food.
Our philosophy is that by choosing food that is kind to us, we can also be kind to the earth. Through our cooking, we take the power of the sun, water, wind, and ocean into our bodies and enjoy our food as if we are talking to nature.
We also believe in the power of nature's energy, which we cannot see but which energizes our minds and bodies. And we aim to help you feel better on your own.
