“First Wagyu Experience in Tokyo” — Yakiniku “Hatsumi” in Roppongi Launches Wagyu Starter Set for International Tourists

■ Commitment to Wagyu
At Yakiniku Hatsumi, we use carefully selected ingredients that prioritize origin and quality to maximize the natural appeal of Wagyu. We feature Ishigaki Wagyu, characterized by its fine texture and elegant sweetness, and Tottori 'Oleic 55,' known for its high oleic acid content and light, clean aftertaste. The menu is structured so that even first-time Wagyu diners can clearly appreciate the differences in flavor and texture.

■ Why We Developed This Menu
With the increase in international tourists, we have received many comments like, 'I want to try Wagyu, but I don't know what to order.' Additionally, high-end yakiniku often presents a psychological barrier for first-timers due to ordering complexity and lack of price transparency. To solve these issues, Yakiniku Hatsumi developed this menu under the theme of 'A Wagyu Experience Without Confusion.' We aim to be the gateway where anyone can simply encounter 'authentic Wagyu.'
