For 10 years, it has been a great pleasure to share my food and vision with guests at Disney Springs. This journey continues because of my team’s passion and dedication, and they inspire me every day. I look forward to the next 10 years, bringing new ideas and flavors to everyone who visits. –Chef Masaharu Morimoto
