Riko YAMAWAKI is a Tokyo based food coordinator, culinary instructor, and book writer. Born and raised to a traditional Japanese inn (ryokan) family in Nagasaki, Japan. Riko has always been aware of how the seasons and local fresh ingredients are critical to dining. She further cemented those ideals when she began studying French cuisine under 3-Star Michelin chef Alain Ducasse. While Riko still considers her mother to be her true cooking mentor, Riko has taken inspiration from a variety of cuisines from across the globe. In 2007 she spent a year in New York City taking in the culture of food in America, before returning to Japan to open her cooking school in Tokyo's fashion trendy Daikanyama district and releasing more than 25 cooking books in Japan, U.S. and Taiwan. Her first essay called "Starting happy solo trip from 50 years old" (2023) has sold more than 120,000 copies in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. And her latest essay called "Falling, laughing, and preparing for 60 yers old” will be coming in December 2024!!
