One Star: High quality cooking
Norihisa Nishimura was born and raised in Sakurai. His aim is to create simple dishes with a sense of warmth. The dishes may look simple but their appeal is in the creative preparation that went into them. In the spring, he deep-fries bamboo shoots from Asuka without breading or batter and then grills them with soy sauce. In the summer, he dresses silken tofu with dashi made from tomato juice. With his creativity, he brings a new perspective to the tastes of Japanese cuisine.
