Chef Ryo Kurosawa's Comment on "Hakko &" and "WEST Table"

At Hakko &, we provide "time to feel balanced through meals" through the food culture of "fermentation" that has been passed down since ancient times in Japan. Just as ingredients become more delicious over time, I hope that through our meals combining fermentation and Hokkaido ingredients, you can feel your daily life changing a little more positively.
