In this survey, people who gathered support due to expectations of their cooking skills and achievements, such as Mokomichi Hayami and Asuka Wada, ranked high, alongside those like George Tokoro and Takuya Kimura, whose characters and popularity were the reasons for their selection.

The desire to buy from a kitchen car is not solely determined by expectations of the food itself. This survey suggests that expectations of the experience, such as "the possibility of meeting that person" and "the enjoyment of the atmosphere," also influence the desire to patronize it.

For those considering opening or utilizing a kitchen car, why not consider focusing on such "attractive individuality and presence"?
