Puncho and FamilyMart Present the Ultimate Cheesy Napolitan

In a culinary collaboration that promises to excite pasta lovers everywhere, renowned Napolitan specialist Puncho is launching their latest creation: the "Extra Large Thick Noodle! Cheesy Napolitan". From June 24, 2025, this delectable dish will be available at around 16,000 FamilyMart stores across Japan (excluding Okinawa). With this offering, Puncho aims to elevate the classic Napolitan experience to new heights.

A New Milestone in Collaboration

This latest release marks a significant moment in the ongoing partnership between Puncho and FamilyMart, which began in 2011. Over the years, they have successfully launched eight distinct products, all of which have garnered positive reactions from customers. However, the "Extra Large Thick Noodle! Cheesy Napolitan" is set to outshine them all, featuring a whopping 400g of noodles — the same amount served at Puncho restaurants.

The dish brings a unique combination of sour and sweet flavors, thanks to Puncho's signature tomato sauce. This sauce is carefully crafted using a blend of three distinct tomato types, ensuring a well-balanced taste. The noodles and the sauce are harmoniously combined, delivering a robust flavor profile that's bound to delight.

Cheesy Goodness Overload

One of the standout features of this Napolitan dish is its generous toppings. It is enhanced with two types of cheese: a creamy cheese sauce and shredded cheese, combined with savory sliced sausage that adds richness and depth to every bite. The noodles are crafted with the same thickness (2.2mm) as those served in Puncho restaurants, providing an authentic texture that's chewy yet satisfying.

"We wanted to deliver a national dish like Napolitan in a more accessible and fulfilling way. This 400g portion, our largest to date, is a heartfelt collaboration with FamilyMart after a five-year hiatus. When you take a bite and think to yourself, ‘Ah, Napolitan really is delicious,’ that would be my ultimate pride," said Puncho's CEO, Keisuke Nojiri.

Whether you're a dedicated fan of Puncho or someone who hasn’t had the chance to experience their dishes, this extraordinary Cheesy Napolitan is definitely worth trying. Available at your nearest FamilyMart, it’s an experience you won’t want to miss!
