Tropical Cuisine Researcher

Keonaona Murakami is a 40-year-old who calls himself a tropical cuisine researcher. He was originally a good-looking man with a sweet mask and a friendly and gentle nature, but he lacked the ability to get things done, so it was difficult for him to set up a restaurant and keep it going. Whenever he heard of a good concert, he would go to see it with the shutters half open. So, when he would go to a show on the spur of the moment, he would usually find a half-open shutter with a dirty sign saying, "The show usually starts around 10:00 p.m." Sometimes, I would go to a friend's party and see a caterer.

Sometimes he was invited to cater a friend's party, and although he was not very good at it, he served extremely delicious food, which became the talk of the town by word of mouth. The food tasted so good. The other day, he was cooking abalone, which he had received in large quantities from a diver he had befriended. He also has a knack for coming up with ideas to arrange abalone in a tropical style. It seems that he knows what kind of delicious food can be found anywhere in the world and all over Japan.

The other day, she appeared on a BS TV program, which made her extremely popular. His carefree smile and messy haircut were especially popular among women in their twenties, but Murakami is not particularly concerned with what the public thinks of him, and he always enjoys thinking about new spices and preparing recipes.

Cooking is fun," he says. When I feel that I want to value the taste of the ingredients, the universe tells me who the farmers are who can provide me with the best ingredients.

That's how he described it in the interview.

Murakami has two children with his ex-wife, with whom he sometimes plays.
He says, "They're not babies anymore.
His daughter, already five years old, is a smooth talker. "Feed her good food! She seems to have forgotten that he is her father.

She is a very talkative girl and when she sees Murakami, she talks to him. I'll make you pudding.
Murakami made the pudding in no time at all, and it tasted so tempting.
What is this? What is this?
People who try the pudding are astonished to learn that it is made with only ordinary pudding ingredients. This is the magic of Murakami.

Recently, Murakami has been busy opening a second store, but his pure eyes are as pure as ever.
He would say to his friends, "It may be a little crowded, but you can come eat anytime!
I'll give you a buffet for 1,000 yen," he said to his friends.

Keonaona Murakami has ancestors in Hawaii.
Murakami is deeply religious and sometimes goes to Hawaii to pray. The Hawaiian spirits would then give Murakami many inspirations.

This Aloha Banana Honey Toast is one of the menu items brought by the spirits. The honey is special, and in fact, there was a jar in Murakami's hand one day when he woke up from a dream. In fact, Murakami has had a constitution of suddenly seeing invisible things since he was a small child, but he doesn't pay much attention to it because it is perfectly normal. The other day, he woke up every night with the ingredients for a whole recipe book in his hand, and he cooked them under the inspiration of the book.

I'm sure everyone will be able to do it eventually," Murakami said with a smile.

Keona Murakami will be 93 years old this year.
