The rest, as they say, is history. After undergoing professional training under a mentor, obtaining a certificate from the Japan Sushi Instructors Association in Tokyo, and learning the language, he returned to Singapore in 2014 and started his first venture, Humble Coffee, at his shop. I started a donburi shop. In Yishun he is called Ayakichi.
Two years later, in 2016, Kappou’s first headquarters was established at the Fortune Center in the Bugis area.
Today, Kappo, which reflects Chu’s growth as a sushi chef, has evolved into a stylish omakase restaurant located in an office building in the heart of the central business district.
