To thank you for your support, renowned chefs of the region are offering you a recipe from their menu to do in the comfort of your home.
It’s before leaving his hometown of Osaka in Japan to move to the United States, that Toshiyuki Kawai received his true calling. Worried that her 23 years old son would have to take care of himself in America, his mom initiated him to some basic cooking techniques. She would have never guessed that her teachings would open up his passion to a wonderful career behind the ovens.
Wanting to learn the traditional culinary techniques of European cuisine, Toshiyuki rapidly decided to learn his trade with well-known restaurants of the region such as LUC, HARVEST VINE and BOOK BINDERY. « It was important for me to learn from the bests. My time spent in those restaurants made me understand that I wanted to incorporate the best of French cuisine who concentrate on the flavor to the best of Japanese cuisine who’s know for its freshness » confides chef Kawai to ICI SEATTLE.
