Shimpei HIROSE

Ukai-tei Kaohsiung Head Chef of Japanese Cuisine Chef Hirose Shimpei, Head Chef of Ukai Kaiseki, refined his craft at UKAI Chikutei in Hachioji and UKAI Kappo in Ginza, dedicating over a decade to mastering authentic Japanese cuisine. In September 2018, he was appointed to Taiwan to oversee the Japanese culinary operations and planning for The Ukai Taipei and Ukai-tei Kaohsiung.

Chef Hirose believes that cuisine is a profound form of artistic expression. Through the thoughtful engagement of the five senses—taste, sight, aroma, sound, and touch—he brings narrative depth to each dish, enriching both its flavor and meaning. By weaving together elements that evoke storytelling and seamlessly integrating them into his creations, he aspires to craft a culinary spirit found exclusively at Ukai-tei Kaohsiung.

His ultimate wish is to offer every guest the highest level of hospitality—an experience that transcends dining itself, leaving a lasting impression that lingers beautifully even after departing the restaurant.
