Fuji Restaurant | Determination & Focus | Thailand

Thailand's Japanese restaurant Fuji has launched a television campaign showing its dedication to cuisine and customers.

Fuji Restaurant | Determination & Focus | Thailand
Conceptualized by agency Creative Por-Pieng, the commercials show a head chef and his sous chef giving their cooking 110% effort. Titled ‘Determination’ and Focus', the agency illustrates the willpower of the chefs in a bottle of flavouring that diffuses their love in all the restaurant’s dishes.

The campaign was motivated by a desire to show that which “makes Fuji different” according to managing director of Creative Por-Pieng Brian Nachaisit. “Our team has studied a bunch of Japanese TV series about Japanese food, and we found that the real Japanese food should reflect the thinking and feeling of chef who makes it.”


Determination:


Head chef: did you put in the ‘determination’?
Sous chef: Yes!
Narration: At Fuji, ‘determination’ is the most important seasoning.
Customers: Umai (extremely delicious)!

Focus:
