“Kurazushi” will sell “low-carb sushi” which no other sushi-go-round chain restaurants have ever sold.
“Muten Kurazushi” a sushi-go-round chain restaurant will sell non-carb dishes including “Shari Yasai,” “Nanashu no Gyokai Ramen” and “Shari Puchi” in response to the recent boom of eating non-carb foods! The products will be sold at all Kurazuhi stores throughout Japan starting from the 31st of August, 2017 (Thurs.).
“Shari Yasai” uses “vinegar soaked daikon” (Japanese radish) instead of “shari” (vinegared rice). Daikon is sliced in a manner that one can enjoy the texture and the vinegar that is used is a special vinegar that includes sugar, salt, soy sauce and lemon-pepper. The product can be eaten as is, dipped in soy sauce or by wrapping it in lettuce. There are various ways to enjoy this food item.
Moreover, “Shari Yasai Temaki” which wraps vinegared daikon, fish and cucumber with lettuce and uses seaweed will also be sold.
“Nanashu no Gyokai Ramen Mennuki” uses a popular ramen soup which is popular in “Nanashu no Gyokai Dashi” and in place of noodles it uses carrot, pak-choi, bean sprouts and cabbage. One can enjoy the thick taste of soup, the colorful ingredients and the texture of cabbage and bean sprouts. “Shari Yasai” and “Ramen Mennuki” both use highly selected vegetables produced in Japan.
“Shari Puchi” was created in response to the opinion of their customers who said, “we become full by eating a lot of rice.” This food item uses half the amount of rice so that customers can enjoy a lot of different kinds of sushi.
Let’s enjoy eating non-carb sushi!

“Village Vanguard Online” is now selling “Furisode Y-shirt” a collaborative kimono / business shirt piece of clothing.
The product was produced by CAMPFIRE and is an item that can only be bought at Village Vanguard Online which re-creates the illustration depicted by the popular illustrator, Shun Akagi.
The model of this item is Idol College’s Haruna Sato.
〈A comment by Shun Akagi〉
I often depict illustrations that contain the design of ethnic costumes such as Japanese clothes and China dresses.
I depicted this illustration because I wanted to mix the taste of Western style clothes and Japanese style clothes.
These days there are not so many opportunities to wear Japanese clothes. But I hope everybody will enjoy wearing Japanese clothes with a casual feeling in the future.
Enjoy this piece of clothing which is a collaboration between Japanese kimono and a Western-styled shirt.

A new restaurant by the name of Kimura Don is set to open inside Shinjuku Takashimaya's Restaurant Square on July 20, 2021. Kimura Don is a new donburi restaurant produced by Koji Kimura, a chef whose popular sushi bar Sushi Kimura, located in Futakotamagawa, has held two Michelin stars since 2013. His new eatery continues the traditions and techniques honed at Sushi Kimura while spinning innovation into new donburi rice bowl dishes conceived from the many ideas Kimura has conceived over the years. The donburi to be served recreates that perfect balance between vinegared rice and toppings which Kimura mastered at his sushi bar. Customers can enjoy a range of additions including donburi classics such as meat and fish as well as seasonal ingredients. The restaurant also uses locally grown and reared produce and ingredients that's also environmentally-friendly from Tokyo such as Kinuhari rice from Hachiojo and Akigawagyu beef. This will help to foster a relationship between local farmers and consumers.
Lunchtime Dishes | ¥3,500 Each | Serving Times: 11:00-17:00 (Last Orders 16:00)Pick from five different donburi bowls such as tuna, pilchard, and roast beef. Each season will also has its own exclusive dish made with seasonal ingredients. There's also a special option to order a set of two smaller versions of the dishes too for ¥3,800. Evening Courses | From ¥12,000 | Serving Times: 17:00-23:00 (Last Orders 22:00)The evening course line-up is also made up of five different bowls as well as seven seasonal snacks. Koji Kimura | Comment
"I've been set up in Futakotamagawa for 16 years. I studied how to prepare sushi rice for many years, since it serves as the foundation, so that I could create unique sushi. I have made sushi rice that's unique and draws a line under other restaurants, rice which when combined with toppings explodes with umami flavour. I use this same sushi rice as the basis for lots of innovative donburi dishes, and I'd love for people to enjoy a taste at the first place in Japan to do this."Information
