Happy International Women’s Day!

In honour of International Women’s Day this Monday, March 8, we’re thrilled to showcase our Wagashi Specialist Saki Fukuda.

In our kitchen, Saki combines training, skill and a deep respect for the time-honoured Japanese art of wagashi making as she prepares delicate creations every bit as pleasing to the eye as the palate.

Born in Nagasaki, Saki studied the art of wagashi making in Kyoto at the celebrated Kameya Yoshinaga confectionery, where she honed her abilities in all aspects of wagashi creation before arriving in Vancouver and joining Yuwa, now working alongside our Executive Chef Masahiro Omori.

We look forward to introducing you to Saki’s unique wagashi creations the next time you visit and salute all women in the foodservice and hospitality industry who lift us up on a daily basis!
