Nestled discreetly in Roppongi, Tokyo, the exquisite Japanese restaurant Fuyo offers a unique experience for sake enthusiasts, launching its Japanese Sake Free-Flow program starting August 2026. This program features ten carefully selected types of sake, including the rare Jikon, for a remarkable price of 3,000 JPY (tax included).

A Taste of Culinary Excellence

Fuyo is managed by beagle Inc., under the leadership of CEO Masamaro Hanamitsu, with a philosophy that emphasizes creating the future of food. The restaurant’s chef, Kuto Sugimori, aspires to share an extraordinary dining experience where the perfect pairing of beautifully crafted dishes and exquisite sake can be enjoyed without hesitation. This is Fuyo's first special initiative, created by Chef Sugimori's passion for providing an unrestrained gastronomic adventure.

This remarkable free-flow sake program not only highlights the flavors of the sake but also emphasizes the harmony of the food, elevating the delicate tastes of seasonal ingredients through the umami of Fuyo’s signature dashi (broth).

Program Highlights

• - Price: 3,000 JPY per person (tax included)
• - Sake Selection: Ten varieties, including seasonal selections curated from renowned sake breweries across Japan.
• - Focus: Each sake is selected to enhance the essence of the dishes, showcasing the quiet umami that complements the subtle flavors of Fuyo’s cuisine.

The Chef's Vision

Chef Sugimori passionately believes that diners should immerse themselves in the delightful aftertaste of exquisite Japanese cuisine paired with fine sake. His goal is for guests to revel in the optimal combinations of dishes using the dashi he has honed since his training days. He enthusiastically shares:

“I want guests to forget about time as they indulge in delicious Japanese food and sake. We have curated ten amazing sake selections, including rare labels, allowing everyone to indulge without worrying about the price. From crisp and dry sake that enhances sashimi to a fuller-bodied junmai sake that pairs perfectly with warm dishes, every sip offers an adult experience of pure indulgence.”

Meet Chef Kuto Sugimori

Hailing from Mie Prefecture, Chef Sugimori began his culinary journey at the Mie Prefectural Oka High School, renowned for its food and cooking program. After a stint at a French restaurant in Yokkaichi, he honed his skills in French cuisine's intricacies, focusing on ingredient combination, presentation, and layered flavors.

However, the world of Japanese cuisine captured his heart, leading him to refine traditional skills in dashi-making and the treatment of seasonal ingredients. By the age of 22, he was appointed as the head chef of Fuyo, where his repertoire combines the essence of traditional Japanese cooking with the creativity of French culinary arts.

At Fuyo, patrons can enjoy a variety of dishes that reflect the freshness of seasonal ingredients, including sashimi and unique creations such as the signature crab tamago sandwich and freshly steamed rice. Each dish tells a story and resonates with guests, thanks to the carefully sourced sake selections, primarily from his homeland in Mie.

The Essence of Fuyo

Concept

Fuyo provides a hidden retreat for adults, echoing tranquility and elegance, much like petals floating on the water’s surface.

Chef Sugimori skillfully integrates his French-inspired sensibility to craft dishes that radiate with flavors and details from Japan's rich culinary heritage.

Ambiance

The refined interior combines modern aesthetics with traditional Japanese elements, creating a serene escape from the bustling streets of Roppongi. Soft lighting and calming music set the stage for meaningful conversations, allowing patrons to immerse themselves in the upscale dining experience.
