We like Fukushima-Gyu
A reporter interviews with the chef of the Tomiyama restaurant,who seems to like the Fukushima Gyu very much.
Q."Why do you choose the Fukushima Gyu?There are many kinds of beef in Japan,such as Yonezawa Gyu,Sendai Gyu,or Matusaka Gyu,aren't there?"
A."First of all,because I am a man who was born and spent my life in this place,Fukushima.
Second,I had many opportunities to visit cities like Yonezawa,Sendai,Mie,Hyogo,Gifu,and Shiga,where the famous brand beefs were,and I took them.And then I realized that Fukushima Gyu was as good as that of the big brand beefs.
Because I wanted many people to know the Fukushima Gyu,I decided to open the restaurant where you could take Fukushima gyu easily."
Q."What are the attractive points of the Fukushima Gyu?"
A."Well,you didn't know about it,did you?Most Japanese don't know about it,which makes the Fukushima Gyu attractive.And that is the big problem.
The biggest brands like Matsusaka Beef or Kobe Beef and so on spend a lot of money on advertising,and that cost is reflected in their price.
The Fukushima Gyu lacks of the power of a advertising,but it spends money to improve of the quality of its meat.
And the nuclear power plant disaster has affected in all around field of Japan especially in Fukushima since then.This is the second reason why Fukushima Gyu is less expensive than other brand beef.
Now,we can conclude that the knowing the Fukushima Gyu makes you have a good chance to get high quality beef at reasonable price.
And more,the Fukushima Gyu has the big sponsor which is JA.If JA put power into promoting it,a lot of Japanese probably know the values of the Fukushima Gyu.The more people want to get it,the higher the price of it will go up.The time when we can get the Fukushima Gyu easily is maybe just now.These things attract me,too."
Q."Could you tell me the checking point when I choose the Fukushima Gyu?"A."Sometimes the quality of the Fukushima Gyu can be quite different.It is caused by the concerned wholesale.
You may be confused to see that there are many types of the Fukushima Gyu labeled Class A4 or Class A5.Your sense of what looks delicious will make you a good choice.Seeing and comparing each meat so many times will lead you the right way."
Q.Do you have any recommendations about your store or the Fukushima Gyu?
A.Well,you can do the Fukushima Gyu berbecue and have ramens which uses meat of Fukushima Gyu and croquette,minced meat cutlet.You can also get Fukushima Gyu Don,cup of soup and curry at the Meat & Deli Tomiyama store.You may find the new aspect of Fukushima Gyu.
