My name is Toshi, and I am based in Tokyo. I host warm and authentic
home cooking experiences, sharing everyday Japanese food and culture
with guests from around the world.
I spent over 40 years working at a global company, including time in
the United States, supporting cross-cultural communication. These
experiences shaped my interest in connecting with people from
different backgrounds.
My partner, Demi, supports the experience with her background in
language education and international support. She also trained under a
professional chef from Hilton Tokyo Dynasty, bringing professional
knowledge into our home-style cooking.
Together, we create a welcoming space where guests can relax, enjoy
home-style dishes, and discover real Japan through conversation.
