Masayuki Goto

The Climb

At Inagiku, The Royal Garden hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui East, Hong Kong, Masayuki Goto held the Executive Chef role until 2013. In a hotel kitchen, the post carries more than seniority; it means setting the rhythm of service, maintaining consistency across the pass, and keeping the operation aligned under pressure. That 2013 marker fixes the end point of that period and identifies the level at which he was working. The same Executive Chef title now sits with Shikigiku Japanese Restaurant in Hong Kong. The move from one kitchen to another reads as continuity in authority rather than a change in rank, carrying the same standard of oversight into a new dining room. Here, the role is still about directing the kitchen, holding the line on execution, and shaping the restaurant’s Japanese dining expression.
