make yourself a better cook


from the 1st day i stepped into the kitchen, i knew that observing and learning, all that i could, from the WHOLE would help me become a better cook.  still in the process of waiting for restaurant conat to open, i now have time to try new techniques (to me anyways) and to finally get my hands "dirty" with my exploration of the savory side.




learned how to open & cure live uni (thank you chef hori-san)

learning to butcher & handle fresh fish (thank you chef hori-san)
