Shin Souta no Houchou

Born in Shizunai, Hokkaido, Souta Kitaoka grew up surrounded by the culinary traditions of his family’s restaurant. Determined to restore their struggling establishment, he relocated to Tokyo to refine his skills. His dedication quickly caught the attention of the owner of Tomikyuu, a prestigious and long-established traditional restaurant located in Ginza. Under their demanding tutelage, Souta endured grueling training that ultimately elevated him to the position of head chef. Rather than resting on his achievements, Souta embarked on an extensive culinary journey to broaden his expertise. This pursuit eventually led him to open his own restaurant, Tomikyuu Kamui, in Nerima, Tokyo. Years later, driven by an unwavering passion for his craft, he sets out once more—this time seeking the true essence of hospitality just as the city prepares to host the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Marking the highly anticipated return of a beloved classic, this manga continues to explore the profound art of Japanese cuisine through the eyes of a master chef dedicated to perfection.
