Family traditions inherited from the world of sweets
After training in Japan, in 1983 he opened a Japanese pastry shop in Barcelona with his father, Takashi Ochiai.
He spent more than 25 years in Japan learning everything about Japanese pastry or “wagashi.” This knowledge is embodied in Pastisseria Ochiai – a cozy, family-owned place where Japanese flour and rice dumplings, gingerbread, and green tea and matcha cakes are served. Despite its unpretentious atmosphere, Pastisseria Ochiai pays tribute to the excellence and quality that are hallmarks of Japanese pastry.
These days Pastisseria Ochiai showcases its seasonal menu, where flavors vary by season and fresh products are used.
