Features Katsukichi Hibiya International Building
Reopened in "Uchisaiwai-cho" after 60-old years
In Uchisaiwai-cho, shortly after the war, in the late 1950's and early 1960's, there was a Western-style restaurant called "Hatoya," which was opened by Kichinosuke Yoshida, the founder of "Katsukichi."
Later, the restaurant was moved for the renewal of the building, underwent a change in its business model, and was renamed "Katsukichi." Therefore, Uchisaiwaicho is considered the starting point of our company.
In response to an invitation by the Hibiya International Building, we reopened our restaurant in this area after about 60 years' absence.
Inspired by the water pipes of the Edo period
The most distinctive feature of the Hibiya store is that it uses ``water pipes'', which were used to transport water to Edo Castle (Imperial Palace) during the Edo period, as decorations.
The signboard at the entrance, the large picture frame, and the shelves holding antiques such as soba choko cups are all made of these ``water pipes.''
The founder inherited this item that was excavated during subway construction near Yotsuya, and it has been stored in our warehouse for nearly 60 years.
The warmth and gentleness of solid wood
We used solid wood (Japanese zelkova, etc.) for the tables and supports, and old wood for the beams, paying particular attention to the ``real wood'' that the Japanese cherish.
In addition, miso soup bowls, pickle containers, salad bowls, chairs, and other items are custom-made by craftsmen in Ueno Village, Gunma Prefecture. We hope that you can feel the "warmth" that can only be experienced because it is handmade.
