■ Background of Development: Intentionally Choosing 'Meat' in a 'Sanctuary of Seafood'
~ Intersecting Daily Use and Tourist Demand at the 'Kitchen of Shimizu' ~
Shimizu Fish Market 'Kashi no Ichi' is a facility bustling with both tourists and local customers, serving as the 'local kitchen' where intermediate wholesalers sell directly. In this fish-centric environment, Food Forest proposes a new option by 'intentionally making meat the star.' We aim to provide local customers with stamina and health for daily use, and offer tourists a refreshing change of pace and satisfaction amidst a succession of seafood meals.
Furthermore, by joining the Manpuku Holdings Group, we have realized a balance of 'health and satisfaction' by multiplying the Japanese cuisine and tororo (grated yam) techniques cultivated over 35 years with the group's strength in meat procurement.
■ Product Features: 'Wild Yam' to Regulate the Body x 'Select Meat' to Satisfy the Soul
The signature items are set meals combining select meats with grated wild yam soup made from the rare ingredient 'Jinenjo' (wild yam), known for its strong stickiness and high nutritional value.
Carefully Selected Wild Yam
This restaurant uses 'Shirogane Wild Yam', which is characterized by its low astringency and clean taste among wild yams.
While retaining the original richness of wild yam, the aftertaste is light, so it doesn't feel heavy even when paired with meat dishes, allowing you to enjoy it deliciously to the end. It is a variety with a strong fan base due to its high quality.
- A New Proposal of 'Health x Volume'
Offering 'healthy but hearty meals' that balance the post-meal lightness of wild yam with the satisfaction of meat, proposing an experience where you 'eat well and feel regulated.'
- Catering to a Wide Customer Base
Designed to satisfy everyone from the health-conscious to the working generation and tourists.
- Maximizing Value for Price
Optimizing the balance between quality and price through group bulk purchasing. A special weekday-only discounted menu campaign is also planned for the grand opening period.
■ New Specialties Combining the Charms of Shizuoka
We will also offer exquisite side dishes utilizing Shizuoka's ingredients, such as the 'Hitsumabushi Set' featuring Lake Hamana eel and wild yam.
