Hiroyuki Hiramatsu
Executive Chef
Hiramatsu was born in Yokohama in 1952. Deeply inspired by French culture and its appreciation for individuality, he pursued a career in the culinary world to cement his place in one of the pillars of French culture. In 1972, he began studying at the Tokyo YMCA College of Hotel Management while training at Hotel Okura to learn the basics of restaurant management. He then moved to France in 1978 to hone his culinary skills. In 1982, he returned to Japan to open Hiramatsu-tei in Nishi-Azabu, Tokyo. In 1994, he founded Hiramatsu Inc. with the goal of promoting French culinary culture in Japan and cementing its place in every level of dining, from cafés to high-end restaurants. Hiramatsu opened a restaurant in Paris in 2001 and shortly after became the first Japanese owner-chef to be awarded a Michelin star. In 2016, he founded the Hiramatsu Research Laboratory to train successors aiming to break into the culinary world.
Hiramatsu was named a Chevalier of the Order of Agricultural Merit of the French Republic in 2006 and a Chevalier of the National Order of the Legion of Honor in 2017.
