Shabu-Yo Set to Open Its First Global Flagship Store

Shabu-Yo, a renowned brand under Skylark Restaurants, is excited to announce the grand opening of its first-ever global flagship store, "Shabu-Yo Maronie Gate Ginza 2," scheduled for July 16, 2025. This innovative outlet will enhance the already popular experience of shabu-shabu, a traditional Japanese hot pot dish, in one of Tokyo's prime locations.

The Vision Behind the Global Flagship Store

The establishment of this global flagship store is a strategic response to the rising number of inbound tourists showing strong interest in authentic Japanese cuisine. Located close to Ginza Station, a bustling area frequented by international visitors, Shabu-Yo aims to provide a unique dining experience reminiscent of a theme park, where family and friends can indulge in the joys of Japanese hot pot cooking.

3. Expansive Selection of Japanese Sake

In line with the growing trend among international diners, the Ginza location will feature a wide array of premium Japanese sake.
