Mocomichi Hayami’s Philosophy Lives in the Kitchen. The New Colour of “MOCO’S KITCHEN” and the Restock of Vita Craft Items Are Creating a Buzz.
Known as one of the entertainment industry’s foremost “cooking men,” Mocomichi Hayami’s influence now extends beyond TV dramas and variety shows, reaching our everyday dining tables. The other day, while passing by a kitchenware store, I saw a sign at the front promoting “Loved by Mocomichi Hayami,” and it struck me again just how big his presence is. And right now, among his top-tier selections, a few items with a particularly premium feel are gathering major attention once more.
The Exclusive “Cutipol GOA” Colour That Elevates Adult Dining Tables
First up is the collaboration with Portugal’s prestigious cutlery brand, Cutipol. The real talking point is the exclusive colour, beige, personally selected by Hayami himself. It’s a special shade you can’t get anywhere else, as it’s not part of the standard lineup.
The Cutipol GOA series is irresistible for its organic form and the perfect balance it has in your hand. While the classic silver and black are beautiful, this beige is truly something special. It’s not too white, not too brown; its ceramic-like matte texture blends seamlessly with both modern and traditional Japanese tableware. According to those who’ve seen it in-store, there’s no end to comments like, “I want to get the dinner fork and table fork, and even the dessert knife.” This is truly the magic of the “Mocomichi Hayami Exclusive Colour Cutipol Goa Beige.”
The Aesthetics of “Vita Craft” and “MOCO’S KITCHEN” that Shine in Your Kitchen
And another collaboration you can’t miss is with the long-established American cookware brand, Vita Craft. Hayami’s produced items have a unique charm; they’re not only functional but also look great just sitting in your kitchen.
- Vita Craft Mocomichi Hayami Grill Pan Bordeaux (Vita Craft#208): Known as the “Moco’s Kitchen Grill Pan.” That signature bordeaux colour instantly lifts your mood for cooking. The way it gives you a perfect sear is, without a doubt, a testament to its quality.
- Vita Craft Frypan 26cm (Mocomichi Hayami Produce): This is the frypan that will “last a lifetime.” With its excellent heat conduction and durability, it’s a favourite even among professional chefs. It’s also a great size, highly rated for handling everything from daily stir-fries to steaks with just this one pan.
- Enamel Mini Tempura Pot, 16cm, Double Handle, Bordeaux: This one’s just charming. Perfect for people living alone or when you want to make a small batch of tempura or fried food. With its two handles, it’s stable, and the bordeaux colour adds a nice accent to your kitchen.
The common thread among these items isn’t just that they’re “made by a celebrity”; it’s their overwhelming “usability” and a “design that satisfies the desire to own them.” As Hayami himself conveys through his brand “MOCO’S KITCHEN,” these tools transform the time spent cooking and the moment you hold them into something special. Because his philosophy is woven into every detail, once you start using them, you simply can’t go back.
Why Is There a Renewed Buzz Now?
Recently, there’s been a sharp increase in the number of people saying they’ve been waiting for a restock. Especially for items like the Vita Craft frypan 26cm and the Cutipol GOA beige series, which were scarce for a while, many are keen not to miss this opportunity.
I personally bought the Vita Craft grill pan a few years ago, and I was genuinely impressed by its thickness and how evenly it heats. It made cooking so much more enjoyable, with no more guesswork. While Hayami’s image is often tied to the idea of “manly cooking,” seeing his serious approach through these kitchen tools really shows that his philosophy resonates with many people, regardless of gender or age.
If you’re looking to upgrade your everyday cooking to a more luxurious level, now is the perfect time. Go and see them in-store, feel the quality and how they fit in your hand. You’ll surely gain a deeper appreciation for the value of “time at the table,” something Hayami holds dear.
