Chef Yoko

Chef Yoko’s passion for food spans all the way back to her Japanese foodie family. Growing up, she learned her mother’s culinary skills in the kitchen while she watched how her grandfather made traditional tofu & her grandmother worked the art of the tea ceremony. These influences resulted in a lifelong love affair with Japanese cooking, where today Yoko leads a successful career as a Japanese cooking instructor and lecturer, infusing her teaching with the cultural aspects of Japan's rich food.
