■From Aiseki LABO Director Sakamoto
Autumn is the most pleasant season of the year.
There will also be an increasing number of experiential events that allow you to fully enjoy autumn, such as mountain climbing, autumn foliage viewing, hiking, and flavor hunting. The most appealing thing about experiential events is that you can naturally get a glimpse of the other person’s true side. Recently, experiential events have become popular as a casual way to find a match. Advance information? Number of people ratio? Should we ask each other what type we like? There is no such elaborate format. Why not try looking for new encounters at “Aitoku-ya”, a place for men and women to meet that is a little different from a group party?
In addition, in August 2023, AISEKIYA Umeda Hankyu Higashi-dori store offered a university deviation discount exclusively for students, which received a great response on SNS. We will continue to plan interesting campaigns that will spark conversation.

Born on November 23, 1991. During his university years, he traveled to 20 countries and learned about the vastness of the world. After graduating from university, he joined a travel agency and was in charge of educational trips for students. His love counseling was well received by the students, and the following year he was appointed as an unprecedented tour guide, causing a stir within the company. Currently, she utilizes the connections and matching skills she has developed through her natural footwork to handle public relations, human resources, content production, and organizer of group parties.

He has a track record of creating 5 couples in one month.
■What is Aiseki LABO?
In 2019, “Comprehensive love data bank” “Aiseki-ya LABO” was launched as a pioneer in the industry that established a new genre called “Aiseki-izakaya”. And this time, from “Aiseki LABO” to “Aiseki LABO”, we will conduct research on love, marriage hunting, and encounters through various data related to encounters and love, regular interviews with unmarried men and women, and surveys of various Aiseki businesses. We are doing this. Through comments from the on-site staff at Aiseki-ya, who are experts in encounter production, and Sakamoto, the director of Aiseki LABO, we unravel and disseminate insights that cannot be seen in numbers.
■About Aiseki-ya
“Aizoku-ya” is a popular place to meet friends and lovers, and is a revolution in the restaurant industry, with an unprecedented new type of izakaya where you can “share a table with someone new to you”. Starting with the opening of the Akabane store in March 2014, the company has opened approximately 50 stores nationwide to date. In April 2023, the cumulative number of matches since its opening to date will exceed approximately 10 million matches. The great thing about it is that by sharing a table with strangers, you can make new encounters and discoveries, make friends and lovers, and expand your range of encounters with many people.
