Learn from the master of Japanese kaiseki, Yoshihiro Murata: the third generation in his family to cook at Kikunoi, a century-old restaurant in Kyoto, this chef’s modern approach to his forefather’s classic cooking—steeped in ceremony and meaning—has redefined how many chefs regard high-level Japanese cuisine inside and outside of Japan, influencing the likes of Nobu Matsuhisa and Ferran Adrià.

Congratulations to Japanese chef Yoshihiro Murata, who has been named the recipient of the prestigious American Express Icon Award 2020! Chef Murata will be presented with the American Express Icon Award in his native Japan during the eighth annual Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants awards ceremony on Tuesday 24th March.
