Why Chef Alan Ferrer Chose Kamikoto

Alan Ferrer is a lifelong chef who has had a passion for cooking like many other Kamikoto owners since he was a teenager. 

Alan grew up as an active member in the culinary community, and quickly turned his passion into a desire – and this desire was to become a chef.

Today, Alan is a successful chef and member of the Vancouver culinary community. He is the Corporate Kitchen Chef for Aburi Restaurants and the Executive Chef of Minami, an exquisite restaurant that provides an exemplary dining experience. 

We are honored to say that Chef Alan Ferrer is a longtime Kamikoto user. 

Alan is a perfectionist and strives to provide all of his guests with the best possible dish, so when we asked Chef Alan Ferrer why he uses Kamikoto Knives, his response was simple.

Alan conveyed that his Kamikoto Knives were “the best set of knives” that he had ever “owned and used.” 

This is a comment that we are humbled to share with you today, although it is not the only praise that Alan gave for Kamikoto.

When asked to provide other reasons for why he used Kamikoto Knives, Alan made it very clear that “the craftsmanship and quality of Kamikoto Knives are “superior.” He said that the handle, balance, weight, and durability of our edges are just some of the reasons why he uses Kamikoto Knives.

We can not express how thankful we are to have loyal customers like Chef Alan Ferrer, and we are honored by all of the support he and the entire culinary community gives to Kamikoto.
