About Yakitate no Karubi
Founded in 1969 and located in Toyohashi, Aichi Prefecture, Yakitate no Karubi specializes in freshly grilled calbi rice bowls and Yukkejan soup, making use of high-quality aged beef. With 32 locations nationwide, the restaurant provides a fantastic dining experience at reasonable prices, ensuring that delicious meals are accessible to everyone.
The star of the menu, the Grilled Calbi Don, features freshly sliced beef, grilled over high heat to bring out its natural flavors and aroma. The restaurant’s secret sauce – a blend of 20 carefully measured seasonings – strikes a perfect balance of sweetness, spiciness, and tartness. The rice, sourced entirely from Japan, pairs perfectly with both the meat and the sauce, creating a satisfying and memorable meal.
Another signature dish, the Yukkejan Soup, is prepared in-house using a special broth made from selected beef. Combined with a spicy Korean miso and gochujang, this soup is rich and flavorful, delivering a burst of beef essence with every spoonful.
