Celebrating 17 Years of Hotto Motto

In a delightful reminder of the past, Hotto Motto, the popular take-out bento chain, is commemorating its 17th anniversary. To celebrate this occasion, the company has decided to revive some of its most cherished dishes, combining nostalgia with a modern twist. The new additions, Sappari Oroshi Katsumeshi and Imabari Yakiniku Tamago Meshi, will be available starting May 8, 2025, ensuring that both loyal customers and newcomers can enjoy these upgraded classics.

Revitalized Classics for a New Generation

Hotto Motto has seen impressive growth, with 2,426 outlets across the country as of March 2025. Known for its accessible and satisfying bento options, the brand has now turned to its rich history for inspiration, bringing back two of its all-time favorite dishes. These beloved meals have been reimagined to provide a more satisfying taste experience, while staying true to their original flavors.

Sappari Oroshi Katsumeshi: A Refreshing Twist on Tonkatsu

The Sappari Oroshi Katsumeshi originally made its debut in 2019 and gained popularity for its refreshing qualities. This signature dish consists of tender tonkatsu topped with grated daikon and a special savory sauce that has a unique balance of sweetness and saltiness. The dish is particularly delightful when combined with wasabi, giving it a zesty kick that enhances the overall flavor.

It's designed to be a perfect meal for warmer days, with the additional crunch of sautéed sweet cabbage providing a satisfying texture. Customers can choose between the classic Sappari Oroshi Katsumeshi rice bowl or the separated Sappari Oroshi Katsudon bento, catering to various preferences.

Imabari Yakiniku Tamago Meshi: Local Flavor Reimagined

Next, we have the Imabari Yakiniku Tamago Meshi, which makes a triumphant return after being a regional specialty back in 2015. Celebrated in Imabari City, Ehime Prefecture, this dish showcases succulent pork belly marinated in a specially crafted sweet soy sauce, paired beautifully with two perfectly fried eggs seasoned with black pepper.

This dish offers a harmonious blend of flavors: the rich umami from the pork perfectly complements the creamy softness of the eggs. The reintroduced version features a milder soy sauce taste, enriching the dish's sweetness while ensuring a well-balanced flavor. With its recent upgrade, this hearty meal promises to make anyone who tries it crave for more.
