CHEF

Tatsuo Takada

After gaining experience as a manager, he learned sushi himself and opened Sushi Tanshi in Akasaka.

Born in Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture.

Utilizing the sales experience he gained at a publicly traded company, he began consulting for restaurants in Osaka, opened a catering restaurant, and began managing his own restaurant business. He retired from management to become a sushi chef after realizing the appeal of Japanese food while traveling abroad as a hobby. He trained himself at a famous sushi restaurant in Shibuya, Tokyo. He established his own procurement routes in Kyushu, including Fukuoka and the Goto Islands. He also insists on using Kyushu as a base for his sushi stands and chopstick rests, and even commissions a ceramic artist in Karatsu, Saga Prefecture, to make them for him. He opened his first restaurant, Sushi Tanshi, in Akasaka, utilizing the know-how and personal relationships he developed as a business owner.
