In the vibrant gastronomic scene of Paris, where the pursuit of perfection is a constant, Maison by Sota Atsumi stands out as a true oasis of excellence. Inspired by the wise words of renowned chef Joel Robuchon, who once said, “Perfection doesn’t exist. But that shouldn’t stop us from trying to achieve it every day,” Japanese chef Sota Atsumi, trained by Robuchon, follows this philosophy with dedication.
Atsumi opened his own restaurant, Maison by Sota Atsumi, in September 2019. Despite the obstacles faced, such as the Covid pandemic and structural problems that nearly closed the establishment, Atsumi demonstrated his resilience by resurging with renewed determination.
