Cucini is run by a chef who decided to start his own farm. He continues to further his own education in nutrition and cuisine, and also works educating children about food. His focus on showcasing local ingredients doesn’t just stop at his farm, either: chef Iwanishi sources his ingredients from a variety of local farmers, including Kyotango farmers and fishermen, eggs from Mino Chicken Farm in nearby Ine, Yoka pigs from Toyooka (in neighboring Hyogo Prefecture), Tajima chicken (also from neighboring Hyogo Prefecture), and more. The result is cuisine with deep local flavor, ethical thinking, and close to zero carbon footprint from the food, which is good for the environment as well.
