Authentic French Cuisine Using Tokyo-Bred "TOKYO X" Pork
Did you know that Tokyo is home to a premium pork brand known as "TOKYO X"? Often called "the phantom pork" due to its rarity, TOKYO X is a locally bred three-way cross of Beijing Black, Berkshire, and Duroc. Their diet consists of designated feed, crafted with a proprietary nutrient blend and completely free from antibiotics. TOKYO X features a perfect balance of lean meat and fat, creating a delicate texture and deep umami flavor.

At FURUYA, LLC, we harness over a decade of culinary expertise in Europe to prepare TOKYO X using classic French techniques. To bring this exquisite taste to your home, we offer vacuum-sealed frozen and retort-packaged meals that preserve the authentic flavors of fine French cuisine.

Enjoy the fusion of TOKYO X pork and French cuisine with our selection of gourmet dishes: Bolognese sauce for pasta, Lard Salé (salted pork belly), and Pork de Bourguignon, a rich red wine-braised pork dish.

Philosophy & Vision

Dandy French – A Culinary Journey

Dandy French – A Culinary Journey
Tucked away in Akasaka, FURUYA augastronome is an intimate French restaurant led by Chef Kensuke Furuya. He has spent 20 years training rigorously in Michelin-starred restaurants across France, Switzerland, and Belgium, mastering the profound world of French gastronomy through hands-on experience.

During autumn, Chef Furuya ventures into the mountains with seasoned hunters, meticulously selecting game meat at its peak flavor. He has mastered the delicate balance of texture, color, and timing, ensuring that every dish reflects the true essence of gastronomy.

"Il est impossible de dire à la viande n’a pas été dit les chasse."
(One cannot speak of meat without speaking of the hunt.)

True culinary enthusiasts travel great distances in pursuit of exceptional flavors. Chef Furuya understands this dedication and has made it his mission to create dishes that resonate deeply with those who appreciate authentic, soulful cuisine.

"Bien Manger?" (Are you eating well?)
"Bien sûr!" (Of course!)

His journey brings him back to Tokyo, where he seeks to share the passion, artistry, and life force of his craft with discerning diners. Experience this passion for yourself.
