The philosophy

Kaizen is a Japanese term that means "change for the better" or "continuous improvement." It is a Japanese business philosophy concerning the continuous improvement of operations involving the team.
At Kaizen Japanese Cuisine, we share this same philosophy.

The Chef

Miguel de Vega began his journey into Japanese cuisine in 2007 after a life-changing trip to the land of the rising sun.
Shortly after his trip, he decided to attend the prestigious Hofmann culinary school. Once he completed his studies, he had the opportunity to work with Diego Guerrero at Club Allard, a 2-Michelin-star restaurant, and then with Martín Berastegui, a world-renowned 3-Michelin-star chef.
Then, in 2014, his big dream came true when he opened his first restaurant in Madrid under the name Doki Doki, where his passion for Japan and Japanese cuisine are perfectly represented.
Doki Doki, with Miguel's passion, creativity, and hard work, quickly became a major reference point in the Spanish capital's culinary scene.
Just four years later, Miguel opened a second restaurant in the same city, Kira Kira, where his love for Japanese cuisine continues.
Then, in June 2021, while the world is still reeling from the events of recent years, Miguel opens his third restaurant, Kaizen, in the beautiful and breathtaking Crans-Montana in Switzerland. With his latest project, Miguel is doing what he does best: bringing a little piece of Japanese cuisine to a wonderful location in the middle of the Swiss Alps.

The food

We are only as good as our ingredients. Our chef selects the ingredients himself because that's how he does things.
He also travels to Japan frequently to learn about new trends firsthand.
That's why you'll always find the best quality at Kaizen.
When you come to visit us, you deserve only the best.
