Company: Yakiniku Like Co., Ltd.
Industry: Food Service / Restaurant
Body: Yakiniku Like, operated by Yakiniku Like Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Naoya Takahashi), will begin selling its annual spring-limited 'Raw Lamb Genghis Khan' sequentially from April 29, 2026 (Wednesday), also known as 'Lamb Day.' Advance sales will start on April 29 at stores excluding Hokkaido and Kyushu, with nationwide sales commencing on April 30 (Thursday).

Since its debut in 2021, this project has received overwhelming feedback for being 'tender and odor-free.' This year, in response to high demand, we have carefully selected 'Spring Lamb'—seasonal lambs raised in the vast landscapes of Australia. We offer a dish where you can fully enjoy the unique flavor of 'raw lamb meat.'

### The Growing Popularity of Lamb
About 70% of the lamb meat distributed in Japan is of Australian origin. Exports from Australia have increased from approximately 11,000 tons in 2015 to a projected 17,000 tons in 2025. Furthermore, per capita lamb consumption in Japan has increased by about 1.4 times over the last decade, shifting lamb from a 'special ingredient' to a 'daily choice.' Given this background, lamb is drawing attention as an ingredient expected to expand further. (Source: Meat & Livestock Australia)

### Enjoy Easily Even Alone at Yakiniku Like
'Yakiniku Like' provides an environment where you can comfortably enjoy yakiniku with solo counter seats and smokeless roasters that eliminate odors. With continuous operating hours, you can enjoy it anytime. This convenience makes it easy to enjoy not just yakiniku but also Genghis Khan.

### What is Spring Lamb?
In Australia, spring occurs from September to November. Lambs born during this period are called 'Spring Lamb.' Compared to general lamb, it is characterized by its tenderness and a clean, clear taste with less odor.

### [Points of Deliciousness]
■ Chilled Distribution - Never Frozen
At Yakiniku Like, we air-freight the lamb from Australian farms in a chilled state without ever freezing it. By delivering it to stores while maintaining freshness, you can enjoy the original tenderness and juiciness of the lamb.

### [Ways to Enjoy]
■ Bell Foods 'Genghis Khan Sauce'
We provide 'Genghis Khan Sauce' from Bell Foods, a staple in Hokkaido. The soy-based sauce with added onions, ginger, garlic, and spices enhances the flavor of the lamb.

■ Truffle Butter (New Proposal for This Year)
A new way to enjoy: dip the grilled lamb into truffle butter warmed on the roaster. The aroma of truffle and the richness of butter layer over the lamb's flavor, providing a taste different from ever before.
