- What is Kamulier ?
eating-friendly lifestyle
our contribution to a healthy society
with growing life expectancy.
Kamulier is a restaurant focusing on the importance of chewing food and eating through the mouth. This may sound very obvious. However, many people are experiencing reduced mastication abilities and have no choice but to rely on liquid food, nursing care food and intravenous drip for their daily nutrition intake. At Kamulier, we aim to deliver the pleasure of chewing delicious meals to people with reduced oral functions and babies at early stage of development. We believe that improving our everyday experience with food greatly contributes to improving our quality of life. Kamulier is GC's long-term commitment to a healthy and delicious approach to the pleasure of eating at every stage of our life.
Coming from "kamu," that means "to chew" in Japanese, Kamulier is a coined word intended to refer to people and places delivering meals that can be enjoyed by everybody. At Kamulier, a team of specialists is supporting customers to enjoy chewing and eating. Under supervision of GC, the best professionals including patissiers, certified dietitians and dental hygienists are working together to deliver the joy of eating and chewing delicious meals.
In cooperation with dentists who are engaged in specialized research at dental universities, we set a 5-level system for assessing mastication and swallowing abilities. We develop recipes for sweets and hold our cooking classes based on this system. People with decreased oral functions, as well as babies at early stage of development, may find difficult to swallow sponge cakes, as they tend to cause a dry mouth condition. Here at Kamulier we develop chew-and swallow-friendly menus and recipes, for a rewarding experience for you and your beloved ones. Our efforts received public recognition in 2014, when Kamulier won the Good Design Award.
- Our Experts Work for Your Happy Time
- Our mission is the creation of a place where everybody can enjoy chewing and eating. For this purpose, we are partnering with experts from different fields, such as patissiers, professional dietitians, dental hygienists, and caregivers. I myself have working experience as a patissier and dental assistant. As the shop manager, I am always open to hear the feedback from our guests and staff. For example, people with decreased oral functions would like to enjoy Christmas or birthday cakes just like anybody else. Our job consists in developing easy-to-swallow cakes, that are also available through our home delivery service, or to hold seminars where we teach how to prepare food so that the whole family can enjoy having a meal together.
