It is the same that both food and surfing will never be in the same situation again.
"Warm things are warm and cold ones are cold. My mother handed me hot rice at home.…。 This feeling is the ideal of my cooking. I think my heart is also here," "The technical aspects of cooking are of course important, but the most important thing is feeling. The menu changes depending on the customer, whether you are an elderly person, so you can finish it a little softer, or if you are a child, surprise with dessert. "It's also important to prepare dishes by imagining the happy faces of customers," says Yoshida.
Windsurfing, which started to change his mind, is sometimes a skill to practice with a professional.
"It's similar that both food and surfing will never be the same again. I don't get exactly the same material, nor do I get on the exact same wind. I think it's professional to get the best results in any situation."
Currently, as a Yokohama Meister, he has been giving a lecture in elementary and junior high school classes to convey the importance of food.
