Hitoshi Sekimori is a Tootsuki Academy alumnus best known for running the Friendship and Rapport Training Camp that brought together the 92nd generation of students. He's the owner and head chef of Ginza Hinora, a sushi restaurant.
Like most Tootsuki grads, Sekimori takes food seriously—almost philosophically. He sees cooking as both an art form and a business, and he's firm about the idea that playing it safe gets you nowhere in the culinary world. Fans note that he brings a calm, logical approach to his work, relying on discipline and clear thinking rather than emotion or impulse. It's this no-nonsense professionalism that defines him both as a mentor and a chef.
