Of course, it's hard to forget that Peru was the only country to ever elect a President of Japanese descent, Alberto Fujimori.
Catherine Contreras, writing in the September 6 edition of El Comercio, reports on Hanzo Japanese Cuisine, the latest contribution to Nikkei and Japanese cuisine in Lima.
The kitchen is headed by the young sensei chef, Hajime Kasuga, whose primary concern, according to Contreras, is quality and service. Kasuga approaches his restaraunt inspired by his samurai heros: like them, his is also a life dedicated to service. This is why he chose to call his new venture, Hanzo, which refers to Hattori Hanzo, the most famous ninja in history.
Contreras details Kasuga's experience: he is a graduate of the Inat, now the Escuela Superior de Administración Hotelera y Turismo, the National Hotel Administration and Tourism School. As a young chef, he received a scholarship to study the culinary arts in Japan. In addition, he is a disciple of César Matsufuji, founder of the renowned restaurant, Matsuei, considered the finest sushi bar in Lima.
Kasuga opened his restaurant with little fanfare to an excellent reception from the dining public.
He has assembled a creative team, both in the kitchen and in the dining room. Hanzo endeavors to prepare traditional Japanese cuisine using Peruvian ingredients. The creativity of the chefs, the quality of the products, and the varied flavors, make this a unique dining experience, according to Contreras.
