Moreover, he took an apprenticeship at a Michelin-starred restaurant to further cultivate his culinary techniques and eventually became independent as a head chef.

Chef Sugiyama has put his great attention to perfecting dashijiru, a simple yet complex broth plays a crucial role in the success of all Japanese dishes.
