Tsunami survivor turned chef flips pancakes into portraits of pets and pop stars
  • 6 years ago
Keisuke Inagaki, a 48-year-old chef who lived in a camp for evacuees in the wake of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster that followed it, wanted to think of something to bring some joy into the lives of the children living in the camp.

When he saw an American doing pancake art on TV, he started making them himself and has continued, having now made 2,000 of them.

His pancakes have become a hot topic on social networking sites and there is now a month-long wait for reservations at his restaurant, La Ricetta in Zama City, Kanagawa Prefecture, south of Tokyo.

Here, Inagaki whips up a storm creating pancake art of the anime character Totoro, Mario from the "Super Mario Bros." video game, Mahatma Gandhi and Kiss frontman Gene Simmons, among others.
