AUSTRALIAN GOOD FOOD GUIDE - Home of the Chef Hat Awards
Shinya Nakano
Born:
Osaka, Japan.
History:
I started as an apprentice Chef in Kyoto in 2000, learning the skills of Japanese cooking for 10 years. I then moved to Melbourne at my friend’s recommendation as I thought it was a good opportunity to challenge my career.
I like to challenge myself in life not only as a Chef but also as a person so I succeed.
