About Yuki
Yuki Nakandakari is a prestigious Peruvian Chef, he has run such distinguished restaurants as "Pisco" in Baltimore, "Ocopa" in Washington DC and "Chalaco's Ceviche & Pisco Bar" in Philadelphia. He is currently the Executive Chef/Owner at "Ceviche Brothers" pop-up in the DMV area. Co-Host of the first Peruvian Talk-show in the USA “Loreando Entre Causas”. Contributor to influential newspapers such as "Mundo Latino" of Baltimore, "El Tiempo Latino" of Washington DC and "El Comercio Newspaper" of the District of Columbia.
Yuki, of Japanese ancestry, was born in Peru and grew up between Lima and Arequipa. He started his professional career in Tokyo, Japan, where he studied and lived for 3 years in the early 90’s, absorbing old-school oriental techniques from the various places he worked at.
The knowledge gained during this period abroad coupled with his heritage is shown to his guests through his culinary creations. The ability to offer a modern Peruvian fare paired with regional Peruvian dishes (from Arequipa), and Nikkei cuisine (Peruvian/Japanese fusion), is what makes Yuki exceptional in his field.
Furthermore, he loves to interact with his guests throughout service; so don’t be surprised when you see him walking around the dining room, that’s another reason that makes our Executive Chef unique; in order for the Chef to grow, feedback from guests is crucial.
