The team

Mutsuo Kowaki, with over 28 years of experience in haute Japanese cuisine between Japan and Barcelona, is responsible for the gastronomic vision and is the master of the kitchen. His work is based on the precision of each culinary technique, the reason behind each step, respect for Japanese tradition, and a contemporary interpretation of cuisine for Western palates.


Keiko Alva, responsible for project management, is also in charge of preparing desserts and selecting and recommending sake, taking care of every detail of the customer experience.
