Thomas has been making his mark on Tokyo's food scene since 2013, turning his love for cooking into two restaurants and a brewery. One of his standout spots, Coaster Craft Beer & Kitchen, sits in the bohemian Shimokitazawa neighborhood, known for its laid-back, creative vibe. Coaster offers a rotating selection of 15 beers from around the world, with taps featuring favorites from Europe, North America, and Asia.

In the open kitchen, Thomas whips up delicious homemade burgers and shareable dishes that go perfectly with a pint. His focus on quality and creativity makes every visit special, staying true to his belief that the kitchen is a place for daily inspiration.

Coaster’s industrial-style space is more than just a restaurant, it’s a community hangout. It hosts brewery events, meetups, art shows, pop-ups, live music, and DJ nights, drawing a mix of locals and visitors who love its chilled-out vibe.

When it comes to fashion, Thomas is all about keeping it comfy, durable, and practical; just good style without the fuss. In 2025, he’s ready to grow his empire even more, bringing fresh ideas to Tokyo’s dining scene and maybe sparking the next big food trend!
