ATLANTA, January 20, 2014 – Hiroko

A renowned
chef-instructor, Hiroko twice a year teaches an intensive, hands-on one-week
basic Japanese cooking course, Essentials of Japanese Cuisine, at the International
Culinary Center in New York City.  Hiroko
has also worked with numerous avocational cooking schools across the country

and Europe.

Her most-recent
restaurant consulting project was to create an authentic Japanese curry
restaurant, Kare-ken, in San Francisco, and the temaki hand-roll restaurant in
New York City.  Chef Shimbo is also
currently working with Zojirushi America, JETRO (Japanese Government
Organization), Bon Appetit and Saveur; earlier projects include New York Mutual
Trading Company, PF Chang's China Bistro, True World Food, UMass Dining, Unilever
and Ruth's Chris Steak House.

She’s a frequent chef guest at The World of Flavors Conference at the Culinary

Institute of America in Greystone, CA, and has written three award-winning cookbooks:  “The
Japanese Kitchen” and “The
Sushi Experience” are considered primers on Japanese cuisine
and continue to attract professional chefs and home cooks.  

Her
most recent book, “Hiroko's American
Kitchen: Cooking with Japanese Flavors” recently won the IACP
Cookbook Award 2013 under American Category. 
“Hiroko's American Kitchen” offers an entirely new perspective on

Japanese cooking:  Rather than teaching
how to cook authentic Japanese cuisine, she focuses instead on integrating
Japanese flavors, cooking techniques and staples onto the North American table – as will her classes at The Cook’s Warehouse. 

Hiroko
is a member of International Association of Culinary Professionals and Les

Dames d'Escoffier New York chapter.
