JFOODO Brings Japanese Seafood Experience to NYC


JFOODO (The Japan Food Product Overseas Promotion Center) is launching a restaurant event as part of its campaign – It Starts with Japanese Seafood – to encourage more people to embark on a delightful Japanese Seafood culinary experience while dining out. In partnership with beloved restaurants throughout New York City, JFOODO is offering appetizers specially curated and designed to highlight the fresh flavors of Japanese Seafood. 

From Feb. 13 to March 6, diners can visit one of these participating restaurants - and be whisked away on a seafood adventure that will light up their taste buds: 

  • BONDST, 20 Hudson Yards Level 5, New York, NY 10001 

  • Carlotto, 100 East 19th St, New York, NY 10003 

  • KYU, 324 Lafayette St, New York, NY 10012  

Visit one of these participating restaurants and be whisked away on a seafood adventure that will light up your taste buds: Simply ask your server for a Japanese Seafood appetizer. And because good food is worth sharing, we encourage you to share the Japanese Seafood dishes you’re trying on your social feeds by tagging @JapaneseSeafoodUS on Instagram.

“Japanese Seafood is truly unlike any other seafood, and that’s no coincidence. Generations of fish farmers have perfected the art of aquaculture so that every bite of Japanese Seafood can take your taste buds on an umami odyssey,” said Soa Forrest, Chef Consultant and Founder of Salt Hospitality. “I’m excited for diners in New York to experience the journey that starts with Japanese Seafood.” To further explore Japanese Seafood — including our products, previous restaurant partnerships, sustainability initiatives, and year-round meal inspiration — visit the Japanese Seafood website.
