Comment from Daisuke Kotegawa
The world is no longer competing for supremacy through military or economic power, but rather, we are now in an age where we should spend our once-in-a-lifetime life happily and healthily. Delicious food is an important element in eliminating stress, increasing immunity, and leading a healthy life. Our country has a variety of delicious dishes brought to you by long traditions, microcultures, and people’s ingenuity. The variety of dishes served in Japan is more than any other in the world, and dishes with the same name can have different flavors depending on where they are served.
We believe that providing information about Japan’s cuisine to other countries so that everyone can enjoy delicious cuisine in Japan is a noble mission that will bring happiness and longevity to all humankind. I sincerely hope that my experience in Japan and abroad will be put to good use for this purpose through table checks.
Comment from Yu Taniguchi, CEO of Table Check
Thanks to your support, we are currently growing rapidly as a company. Last year, we took on new challenges, such as being able to attract more visitors to Japanese restaurants through partnerships with Hakuba Village and the Niseko area.
We believe that by welcoming Mr. Kotegawa, who is deeply knowledgeable about Japanese food culture, as an advisor and cooperating with governments both domestically and internationally, we will be able to expand our business into new areas. Going forward, we will further accelerate our growth speed and strive for “world domination.”
