Chef Wei has an unmatched passion for Japanese cuisine, which began when he entered the culinary field at an acclaimed Japanese restaurant in Boston. After spending seven years honing his craft, he earned his opportunity to work alongside Masa Takayama — the chef and owner of the first 3-star Michelin Japanese and sushi restaurant in US. Under Chef Takayama’s expert guidance and intensive training, Chef Wei mastered the intricacies of Japanese culinary artistry and perfected his skills and techniques. Today, as Executive Chef at 311, Chef Wei brings his unwavering dedication to delivering an exceptional dining experience for guests, infusing traditional Japanese cuisine with his own creative flair to curate an unparalleled fusion of flavors and textures.
"Japanese cuisine has always held a special place in my heart. My goal is to create exceptional traditional Japanese cuisine that reflects the artful use of ingredients and meticulous mastery of preparation techniques, while infusing classic dishes with my own unique creativity and style. Each dish is crafted with care and attention to detail, using only the freshest, highest-quality ingredients to offer our guests an authentic and exciting dining experience. At 311, each dish is thoughtfully served on rare antique Japanese one-of-a-kind serverware, including plateware handmade by Japanese Potter Akira Satake. We are committed to pushing the limits of ourselves to achieve Michelin-level excellence in all aspects of our restaurant, from the food we serve to the service we provide."
