Yakiniku Big Bang with all-you-can-eat yakiniku app without worrying about money, calories, bad breath!?
ChatPerf Inc. (head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Koki Tsubouchi) and KAYAC Inc. (head office: Kamakura-shi, Kanagawa; Representative Director: Daisuke Yanasawa) plan to start delivering on November 15, 2013 "Hana Yakiniku Kit," a jointly developed product that allows users to enjoy yakiniku on smartphones (Scentee device + three scents: short rib, beef tongue, steamed potato and butter), and release the iOS app "Hana Yakiniku" (free) on App Store on the same day. (Dates of shipment and release on App Store may be slightly earlier or later.)

This is an entertainment app that works with Scentee (URL: www.scentee.com), world's first attachment for smartphones, tablets, and PCs that disperses scents. In this project, ChatPerf is in charge of developing and distributing the device and providing SDK while KAYAK is responsible for designing/creating the app.
Hana Yakiniku is a trendy app just in time for the unprecedented meat craze represented by the social yakiniku party called Nikukai, 1-person yakiniku shops, and meat-focused food theme parks. Through sense of smell, it directly works on users' brain, and allows them to fully enjoy yakiniku.
