QUNIOMI exterior

Since its opening, QUNIOMI has been offering creative cuisine that combines the refined cooking techniques of France with the best of Japan's ingredients.

Now, we are pleased to present a limited commemorative course using red Japanese beef, a rare and valuable beef in Japan.

Our desire is to breathe new life into traditional flavors, challenge the common stereotype of "Wagyu = marbled" beef, and provide an opportunity to rediscover the presence and appeal of red meat.

Our goal is to spread the new appeal of Wagyu beef through our cuisine.

■About "Akagyu" beef from Kumamoto and Kochi Prefectures

Akagyu cattle grazing in Aso, Kumamoto Prefecture.

Of all the Wagyu cattle raised in Japan, only about 26,000 are rare "Akagyu" cattle produced in Kumamoto and Kochi prefectures.

In particular, the annual shipment of Tosa Akaushi is approximately 470 head, which is only 0.1% of the total Wagyu cattle production. (According to a survey by the Kochi Prefecture Livestock Production Promotion Division in fiscal year 2008)

This special event will be a new style of course meal by fusing other ingredients and cooking methods of Nippon while using French techniques, which were arrived at after 12 years of exploring the two major production areas of red beef, Kumamoto and Kochi prefectures, and exploring the possibilities of cooking methods, as a special project. The event will be held as a special program.
