J-Drama Pilgrimage | お義父さんと呼ばせて / Let Me Call You Father-in-Law (2016) — KIHACHI青山本店 / Tamotsu Proposes to Miran

Drama: 関西テレビ『お義父さんと呼ばせて』 / Let Me Call You Father-in-Law (2016), scoped to the original nine-episode television series. Episode 1, broadcast 19 January 2016, begins with 大道寺保 / Tamotsu Daidoji deciding to marry the much-younger 花澤美蘭 / Miran Hanazawa. The Nationwide Filming Location Guide identifies KIHACHI青山本店 / KIHACHI Aoyama Main Store as the restaurant where Tamotsu proposes to Miran, making it one of the clearest real-world anchors for the drama’s central marriage conflict. The restaurant still operates at 2-1-19 Kita-Aoyama, Minato, beside the Meiji Jingu Gaien ginkgo avenue. Its current official listing shows separate first-floor casual dining and second-floor main-dining operations, with the second floor reservation-only. This memory uses a building-level pin for the active restaurant; it does not claim the exact 2016 table, seat, actor mark, or camera position. Visitors should follow current restaurant rules and reserve where required.
