MAKIO IDESAKO, SUSHI CHEF
The Canal House is proud to introduce Makio Idesako, Sushi Chef. Makio has been a friend (Amici) of the DePuy Canal House for many years. His background as a chef stems from his early years in Kagoshima Provence, better known as Satsuma, a city located in the southern part of Japan. Makio schooled and studied his art in Daruma Restaurant in Yuraku-cho located in the center of Tokyo, Japan. His teacher, Yojiro Sakaki, a well known sushi pioneer chef later became Makio's father-in-law. The student/teacher relationship became more intense. When Yojiro retired, he later became the chef for Japan's Prime Minister.
AMICI SUSHI LOGO
The Amici Sushi Restaurant logo is from an original lithograph fish painting done by local artist, Maria Lobosco, after her travels to Japan in the early 1980's. Her most recent collection of watercolors was exhibited in the restaurant during the months of May and June of 2007, and embodies the splendor found in landscape scenery of Ireland and France. Maria also studied painting in France and calligraphy in Tokyo. |
