OUR TEAM

EXECUTIVE CHEF

Eddie Castro joins the team at Kuuru as
Executive Chef having spent the last 15
years working within Nikkei Restaurant
brands in Latin America, Peru, Brazil,
Chile, Argentina, and Los Angeles.

As a 7-yearold he was already sautéing at the wok and learning to cook by himself.

Eddie loves using traditional Peruvian smoking
techniques to bring a unique flavour to
meat, fish and vegetables, and looks
forward to introducing modern Nikkei
food to Saudi Arabia.

the sushi and raw bar. He joins us from

Kenji was born in Japan to a Japanese

heavily influenced throughout his life
by the merging of these two unique
cultures. He specialises in creating
dishes that combine the simplicity and
precision of Japanese cooking techniques
with unique Peruvian ingredients.
