The new Riverfront of Napa development that aims to actually celebrate the Napa River rather than ignore it as past development has done confirmed today that Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto has signed a lease to open a restaurant in the new row. Morimoto, whose eponymous restaurants in Pennsylvania, Florida, New York and yes, India, are hugely celebrated, will branch out to the West Coast for the first time, adding California to his vastly successful line of knives, beer and Japanese food.

  3. I am so excited to learn Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto is coming to Napa. I am a 63 year old/young lady and I live in Ukiah up in Mendocino county. There is no fine dining here. My daughter and her husband live in Napa, so we will make reservations as soon as he opens. I watch Iron Chef every chance I get and I have watched Masaharu Morimoto cook and he is wonderful. I have never tasted Japanese cooking but I can not wait to experience Masaharu’s.

  4. Mr. Chef Morimoto. My name is Michone . I have a daughter who is a senior in Highshool. She loves you and idolizes you. She is pursuing Culinary due to you. Her father thinks its a waste of time. I encourage her all the time. To get to my point, I am an unemployed mother of two and am facing two major leg surgeries over the next couple of months. Shaylen will be 18 on January 25. I would love to give her a great birthday, but due to the surgeries and my unemployment will have run out by then the next best thing is try and persuade you to come here to Phoenix for 18th birthday and suprise her in her culinary arts class. I know how much this would mean to her. She is trying to win a competion from the school to attend a culinary arts school. If she wins she will have her tuition paid for. If not then she won’t be able to go to school for a while. Her father and I are divorced and have been for 8 years. I am pleading with you to try and help her achieve her goals. She loves you and what you do and what you stand for. I appreciate the time you have taken to read this. Thank you again for your time.
