The 2nd “Japanese Restaurant Week (JRW),” hosted by GURUNAVI, has partnered this time with the Japan National Tourism Organization (JNTO) to offer itineraries of interest to current visitors to Japan, allowing travelers to deeply experience the charm of Japanese cuisine from various regions. These series of itineraries can be reserved via the “Special Feature Site for Discovering the Charms of Regional Japanese Cuisine” (https://tw.sushiandsake.net/pr/japantour/). Additionally, during the Japanese Restaurant Week event period, participants can log in on the “JRW Event Site” (https://tw.sushiandsake.net/jrwtw/) for a chance to win grand prizes, including round-trip flights to Japan sponsored by ANA and travel itineraries to discover the charms of regional Japanese cuisine.

The JRW event originated in 2013 in Singapore as a food experience campaign launched by GURUNAVI titled “Experience Authentic Washoku in Japan!” It was subsequently held in Taiwan, Bangkok, and Hong Kong. The campaign was designed to inspire consumers to visit Japan through local washoku cultural experiences, creating the concept of “Go to Japan, and go again.” This October, GURUNAVI will once again hold this event in Taiwan, Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Singapore. Among these, the JRW events in Taiwan, Shanghai, and Singapore will be conducted as collaborative projects with JNTO’s “VISIT JAPAN” campaign. Taiwan’s first JRW event in December 2014 was highly praised, and this year marks the warm welcome of its 2nd edition, with as many as 72 Japanese restaurants participating.
