WHAT CUSTOMERS SAY

Trusted by chefs and home cooks

"Walked in for a Petty, walked out with a Bunka and a 1000/6000 stone. The team actually let me hold every knife — that's how I knew Hatsukokoro Hayabusa was the one."
Daniel S. · Home cook · Jakarta
"I've bought from shops in Tokyo and Kyoto. Upscale Living is the closest thing I've found to that experience in Indonesia — same depth of selection, real conversation about steel and forge."
Maya P. · Pastry chef · Bali
"Saji SRS-13 Gyuto. Two years of daily prep in the kitchen. Still scary sharp with a stropping every couple of weeks. Worth every rupiah."
Reza A. · Restaurant owner · Surabaya
"Came to Bali for a holiday, left with a Yu Kurosaki Senko. The Sanur shop is small but the experience is exactly what a specialty store should be — patient, knowledgeable, no pressure."
