Every night Japanese men and women from various industries and life experiences at wide age group are occupying the place. There is increasing of job bachelors due to Japanese firm cost-cutting and many of individual young adults who suffered from Job shortage in Japan are moving into next bravery step in Singapore.

At Dosukoi Sakaba, only Japanese staff will be serving customers and naturally joins its local conversation. It is one of their key secret service methods which well-done service is delivered to customer mind unconsciously.  Although Singapore F&B owners are putting effort by letting staff joins seminars, service skill competition organized by government and to have well thought company service visions, It is still a major challenge for local and foreign service staffs to meet Japanese standard. Dosukoi Sakaba practices family-like service at its appropriate distance and service manner which could be too close from regular point of view but possibly done here which makes customer fantasize like you are in your neighborhood casual bar with all your close neighbors in the house. This addictive Dosukoi culture has grabbed Japanese customers heart to repeatedly come back for new meet ups.  Unexpected friendship and love are growing in between. Dosukoi has its attractive record of 3 couples met at this place ended up marrying! Unlike Japan where there are many matching events for new couplings, in Singapore you can only join as many Japanese parties to meet your future partner. S$50-S$60 per person dinner with unexpected networking with all-time favorite Curry Udon with few glasses of Shochu is a worth awhile.

This concept works not only at retail level but in supplying. The bar located at Cappage plaza where many of Japanese targeted bars, restaurants and night clubs are. The location chosen was perfect for having information shared as well as supplier network for quality Japanese food and Shochu drinks which acts importantly in Izakaya style restaurant.
