Survey Overview

The survey targeted 13 managers from various Hotto Motto locations, asking them to select two key features of the 'Ooban Gyun Yaki Suki Ju'. Conducted between June 2 and June 5, 2025, this initiative sought to gather expert opinions from those who know the product best.

Product Overview

The 'Ooban Gyun Yaki Suki Ju' is a sumptuous dish featuring tender, large cuts of beef that are rich in both flavor and texture. The cut showcases a beautiful balance of lean meat and just the right amount of fat, ensuring a delightful bite every time.

Each bite promises an explosion of flavors, making it hard to stop eating. To elevate the experience, the dish is topped with a soft-boiled egg that adds a creamy richness when mixed in, allowing for a delightful taste variation throughout.

For those looking for an even heartier meal, Hotto Motto offers the 'W Ooban Gyun Yaki Suki Ju', which comes with four slices of beef for an extra satisfying experience.
