About Chef
Kiyoshi Chikano

Born in Aomori City, Japan, Kiyoshi Chikano's culinary journey began in Sapporo, Hokkaido, where he discovered his passion for cooking at a sushi restaurant during his early twenties. He honed his skills in traditional Japanese cuisine in Tokyo, notably at Zakuro Ginza. Following that, Chikano worked at Nadaman in Sapporo for a considerable period., rising to the role of tempura executive chef. His career took him to New York, where he earned a Michelin star as executive chef for eight consecutive years. Now, drawn by Hawaii's blend of Japanese influence and global appeal, Chikano has found his new home. He accepted the position of executive chef at Tempura Ichika, marking the beginning of an exciting chapter in his culinary journey.
