Originating from rural Japan, our new head chef, Toshimasa has over 20 years of experience in Japanese fusion cuisine. Having cooked for VIPs, Japanese ambassadors and recently the 2012 Japanese Olympic committee as a leading chef of the acclaimed ‘Matsuri’ Japanese restaurant, Mayfair, London, for the past 7 years, he has much to offer.”
“With high aspirations, Toshimasa brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to our restaurant, which sets us apart from any other. His love of tirelessly producing and presenting the highest quality Japanese food that fine dining has to offer, excites him.”
“Set to revolutionise Ogino, Toshimasa expresses his intention to introduce local, seasonal wild game dishes to the menu, such as, pheasant phungi [mushroom], partridge with apurikotto [apricot] and panko mustard crusted rabbit.”
