Chef's Quote

I chose Kushiyaki-style cuisine, as I worked at a Kushiyaki restaurant called Torinosu to pay for my cooking school. Basically, it is a “shish-kebab” that is typically made on the streets of Osaka. It’s perceived to be fun, comfort food, from which I have worked to build my style of cuisine. The method for all menu items is to make the marinade, assemble the protein and vegetables on the skewers. Cook the skewer, dip in marinade and then cook again quickly. Kebabs are not marinated prior to cooking.
