Celebrating Local Flavor

Menya Chalmera, a brand recognized for highlighting regional tastes through their products, has yet again partnered with Matsutaya, leveraging their renowned Tori Yasai Miso.

• - Tori Yasai Miso Spicy Ramen: For those who crave a kick, this spicy variant includes Matsutaya's signature doubanjiang, elevating the depth of flavor with a moderate heat level. Both offerings are designed to evoke that home-cooked comfort.

Ingredients and Features

Both varieties feature smooth, chewy noodles and are packed with savory ingredients such as diced pork, cabbage, and chives. Additionally, they come with a separate seasoning paste that intensifies the miso’s richness, making every bite a culinary delight.

* Nutritional Highlights: Each ramen contains 71g and 70g, respectively, of noodle and soup, with a price point of 236 yen (excluding tax).

A Message of Support

To amplify their commitment to the local community, Menya Chalmera’s new ramen packaging will prominently display mascots representing Tori Yasai Miso and Chalmera alongside the logo for the ongoing relief initiative aimed at supporting Ishikawa Prefecture businesses affected by the recent earthquake.
