Chef Yusuke Takada established La Cime in Osaka in 2010, which earned its first Michelin star in 2012. Since 2016, La Cime has impressively retained two Michelin stars for nine consecutive years, a testament to Takada's relentless pursuit of perfection. La Cime has also made its mark on Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants list, coming in at eighth place in 2023; it also ranks 41st on the World's 50 Best Restaurants list. In 2020, Takada was honoured with the Asia's 50 Best Restaurants Chefs' Choice Award, a peer-voted honour—and recognition of his influence and leadership in the culinary world.
