Kazan - Osaka













This is a Chinese restaurant in Osaka whose chef is a graduate of Tsuji cooking school.  I was really amazed by the quality of the cooking here.  It's not exactly authentic Chinese cuisine but rather Japanese fusion in a good way.  The chef doesn't seem like using MSG for his stock so the soup dishes tasted wonderful.

「香山」辻調出身の方のこじんまりとした中華料理店。丁寧なお料理がとても美味しかった。香港の本場の中華とはかなり違ったお料理だが、日本的で繊細で油っぽくとても良かった。 湯はほぼ化学調味料を使われていないようで、とてもすっきりとした味わいでスープと湯麺のクオリティーが高いと思った。

Restaurant Varier - Osaka













This is a very famous grand Maison french restaurant in Osaka.  I was not aware of restaurant names in Osaka but it was a wonderful discovery.  I thought the quality and the creativity of the chef is as good as Robuchon in Tokyo.  Food is delicate, elegant and light French made by a Japanese chef.  Yet the price is so much lower in Osaka.

「レストラン・ヴァリエ」中之島にある有名なグランメゾンのフレンチ。丁寧、クリエイティヴ、繊細な日本人シェフ独特のタッチのフレンチでとても美味しかった。デザートが特に軽やかで感動した。東京のロブションにも近い感じだが、お値段はこちらが随分お手軽だ。

Honkogetsu - Osaka



















This is Michelin three stars Japanese restaurant in Osaka.  I had an amazingly deep experience here.  The master's taste of foods with Japanese plates is exceptional, as I was in a museum.  Their foods don't include any meats but only seasonal vegetables and fish and seafood.  Presentation of August was absolutely amazing.

「本湖月」大阪の和食の名店。ご主人の作り出す和の世界観が圧巻だった。お料理もさながら、使われている器が素晴らしい。本物の魯山人を目の前に見せて下さった。ご主人のお話も含めとても強い印象の残るお店だった。

Tsuji cooking school in Osaka









Even through my six years of life in Hong Kong, I couldn't learn authentic and professional Chinese cooking because I didn't speak Cantonese.  Even I've learned some from my friends and books, I need to learn seriously for once.  So I decided to take a course in Tsuji culinary school in Osaka; largest cooking school in Japan for it's DVD lesson course.  Within one year of course, you can participate in real practice schooling for one week in Osaka.

In the one week lesson, I've learned so much and it was a one of the kind experience for me.  Teachers are very passionate and extremely kind.  The food of Tsuji is extremely good that any restaurant couldn't be comparable... since they only use natural ingredients.

「辻調理学校・通信講座中国料理」私は香港に6年も住みながら、広東語を学ばなかったために香港で真剣にプロの広東料理を学ぶことが出来なかった。そんな中友人のススメもあり、辻調の中国料理通信講座を受けることにし、その夏期講習に大阪へ行ってきた。

この実習がとても充実していて素晴らしい経験だった。先生方が真剣、丁寧で感動し、すっかりこの学校に魅了されてしまった。料理も食材が良いのでどんなレストランより美味しい。料理を学びたい方にはオススメの講座だ。通信教育講座
