Born and raised in Japan, Chef Julia Momosé developed a respect and love for hospitality watching her mother entertain at home. Her motivation for entering the culinary world was a visit she made to a bar in Kyoto watching the bartender hand making ice spheres for use in drinks. She pursued that newfound passion while attending college in the U.S., working at bars and local restaurants, before making a big name for herself as a bartender in Chicago, working for celebrated chefs and restaurateurs at Michelin starred restaurants, before opening Kumiko, what she calls a dining bar, pairing cutting edge drinks with Japanese food that goes far beyond sushi and ramen, and earned a Michelin star there. Recently, she’s taken on an even greater role—when health issues forced her Executive Chef to step down, she took his place, and is getting fabulous reviews, including from the Michelin Guide. And Kumiko has now won Outstanding Bar in the 2025 James Beard Awards.
