Kobe Bussan Group will open "ShabuShabu Kobe Midtown," one of the Japanese restaurants in New York, at 3W 36st Manhattan at 11:30 a.m. on October 8, 2014. Taking great pride in providing authentic Japanese food, a highly healthy food with well-balanced nutrition, the company is now moving to offer Japanese food to people around the world. 3W 36st Manhattan, "ShabuShabu Kobe Midtown," with a floor space of 6,100 square feet (about 567 square meters), is a large-scale Japanese restaurant with about 200 seats.

Its walls will be decorated with pieces of art by noted Japanese calligrapher Rihaku Inoue. Due to a delay in obtaining an official permit, the opening date changed from the originally set September 17, 2014, to October 8, 2014.
