The Man Behind the Wok

Chef Masanori Shiraishi cooks with soul. His blend of experience, enthusiasm, vigor and training is responsible for the development of a menu fusing traditional and modern, innovative yet time-honored offerings. Chef Masa joined the CO family in 2014 and has since utilized his 25 years culinary experience and Japanese heritage to craft fresh, robust dishes with creative twists. Sourcing high-quality ingredients and securing sustainable commodities from local purveyors are standards set by Chef Masa and practiced at each CO restaurant. 

Come give CO a try, where classic Southeast Asian dishes are seasoned with a spin from Chef Masa.
