A Story Of Friendship

Kumoya is the embodiment of a decade-long friendship between renowned sushi chef, Chef Corey Baker (BoozeHounds in Palm Springs, Izakaya Cabin in Crested Butte, Madame Ushi in Aspen), and Chef Max Mackissock, the Chief Culinary Officer of The Culinary Creative Group (A5, recognized by Michelin as a "Recommended Restaurant"; Ash'Kara, awarded Michelin's Bib Gourmand; and Bar Dough, named Best Italian in Denver).

Their mutual admiration for each other's craftsmanship led to a unique collaboration during a Pop Up at A5 Steakhouse, where they shared a culinary dialogue bridging the worlds of sushi and izakaya cuisine. Within the structural framework of Kaiseki, the rules and flow for the evening were set, and from this foundation, Kumoya was born.
