Set in the SoHo district of [Hong Kong](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surf-bar), the new space will open soon to offer consumers traditional Asian-style barbecue mixed with fusion pieces such as Australian Wagyu and Japanese Oysters. The menu features touches of Italian, Thai, Vietnamese, Indian and many more global food influences to create a new venture into Japanese cuisine. This venture follows the emerging prevalence of late night izakaya eats in a dark setting with rock and roll music that plays in the background. The Fukuro Restaurant is set to create a unique atmosphere for all consumers including locals and tourists -- offering a one-of-a-kind mixed menu with Japanese barbecue and izakaya favorites. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.3/10 - Popularity: 34% | Activity: 56% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Late-night Izakaya Eats:** There's an opportunity to create new ventures into Japanese cuisine by mixing traditional Asian-style barbecue with fusion influences. - **Global Fusion Cuisine:** Restaurants can experiment with mixing global food influences to create unique and memorable menu items. - **Upscale Izakaya Experience:** There's a growing demand for high-end izakaya-style spaces that serve gourmet food in a stylish setting. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Restaurant:** Restaurants can experiment with fusion cuisine and offer late-night izakaya eats to create a unique experience for customers. - **Hospitality:** Hospitality businesses can provide upscale izakaya experiences to cater to the growing demand for high-end dining options. - **Food and Beverage:** Companies in the food and beverage industry can explore fusion cuisine and incorporate global food influences to create new and exciting offerings. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Nostalgic Music Dining Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bun-house-disco.md) - [Pop-Up Dining Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/niseko-confidential.md) - [Asian-Fusion Dining Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lobby-bar.md) - [Izakaya-Style Whisky Events](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silence-please.md) - [Luscious Dining Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ful-kyoto.md) - [Lantern-Dangling Steakhouse Restaurants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aragawa.md) - [Indoor Surfing Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surf-bar.md) - [Lunar New Year-Inspired Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blackblue-toronto.md) - [Luxurious Asian-Inspired Steakhouses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/torontos-premier-supper-club.md)
