A Tasty Journey Through Japan with New Noodle Sauces
On September 1, 2026, a delightful collaboration between the travel magazine "Rurubu" and the renowned curry manufacturer "Hachi Foods" will introduce three newly developed sauces for noodle dishes. This collaboration aims to transport diners to various regions of Japan right from their tables, providing a unique gastronomic experience.
Introducing Three New Delicious Sauces
Hachi Foods, located in Osaka, and JTB Publishing, based in Tokyo, have teamed up to celebrate regional flavors through their new range: "Tokyo Addictive Rich Oil Noodles Base," "Nagoya Intense Spicy Taiwan Mixed Noodles Base," and "Osaka Dashi Umami Rich Spice Curry Udon Base." With these new releases, the collaboration series has expanded its lineup to 20 items, with over one million servings sold annually.
This exciting launch focuses on three major cities: Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka, featuring signature dishes that reflect their culinary heritage. Tokyo's popular oil noodles, Nagoya's spicy Taiwan mixed noodles, and Osaka's unique spice curry udon showcase the regional tastes that have been loved for generations.
A Growing Trend in Noodle Sauce Market
