Ken KawasumiKen Kawasumi has pioneered the culinary art of transforming the simple sushi roll (maki-zushi) into an intricately designed masterpiece. He is famous for his kazari maki-zushi.

Since beginning a sushi apprenticeship at the age of 16, Kawasumi has spent 33 years perfecting his sushi crafting techniques. After working at a number of well-known sushi bars in the Tokyo precinct, he opened the popular sushi restaurant Kawasumi.

Currently the Head of the prestigious Tokyo Sushi Academy, Kawasumi splits his time between training students at the Academy and travelling the world introducing Kazari Maki-zushi. Most recently he has delighted audiences in Scandinavia with his demonstrations.

This year (2007), Kawasumi was once again crowned the ‘All Japan Professional Sushi Contest Champion’ after triumphing over other sushi chefs from around Japan on the TV Tokyo series.
