Uncle Tetsu was born. As the first-born child, Uncle Tetsu was obliged to help his parents in their sweets business from the very young age of 5 years old! He grew up baking and preparing scrumptious desserts at the Hakata Sweet Shop.

Later on in life, he studied English Literature at the Seinan Gakuin University where he created and published a community town magazine called Tessy. But it wasn’t long before he went back to the food service business to operate a restaurant called HANAJAM, specializing in handmade American-style cake, and it became a popular spot where college students and young adults gathered often.

Since then, Uncle Tetsu has worked at numerous restaurants and food shops including HANAJAM, Fuga, Buaiso, Soko, Kominkan, Okano Ueno Baka, Popeye No Suki Na Horenso, Kurazy Prayer, Syakoukurabu, 80’s FACTORY, Maruumiya, CARNIVAL CLUB, Kuronokura, Hakatagyouzaya603, Torinotetsu and Nihon Roman-za, the very first Chinese restaurant in Fukuoka offering handmade wedding cakes

At Uncle Tetsu’s Cheesecake Factory, he created an original recipe for handmade Japanese-style cheesecake. His super soft, rich and flavourful freshly baked cheesecake spread throughout Japan faster than he could ever have hoped. It became a hot topic in the media, and people flocked to try it!

Now, Uncle Tetsu wants to bring his cheesecake to the rest of the world.
