Award-winning chef, journalist, and a TV host, Andrew Zimmern, wrote a beautiful story about his love for Japanese cooking in Food & Wine and said, "The best thing to happen for American home cooks in years is Naoko finally opening TOIRO in LA, where you can get her book, browse all the donabe and donburi utensils and vessels, and learn more about making your own dishes to be served over rice or along side it. Check out TOIRO, my new favorite website, and start cooking." We are extremely honored!
