Guchokuni

Guchokuni means ‘in simple honesty’, a phrase handed down from the chef’s two mentors. It is the favourite motto of the chef, expressing his no-nonsense approach to cuisine. A unique perspective on food preparation can be seen in the soup dishes. Crab dumplings are fashioned with generous amounts of crab. Fried items coated with rice crackers impart a fragrant aroma to dashi soup stock. Pureed soup made from vegetables in season is pure in flavour. A menu founded on a patiently built foundation and finely honed sensibility.
