A Culinary Fusion from Hokkaido

In a delicious effort to celebrate regional flavors, Seven-Eleven Japan has officially unveiled two new comforting dishes inspired by Hokkaido's local cuisine: the "Spaghetti Katsu & Butter Rice" and the "Hamburger & Napolitan" served on a delightful plate. Set to launch on June 9, these dishes will be gradually available at Seven-Eleven stores throughout Hokkaido.

Satisfy Your Cravings with Our Comfort Food Plates

For just 598 yen (approximately 645.84 yen tax included), you can savor the best of Hokkaido’s culinary scene, all in one generous serving. These plates are designed to provide a hearty experience for diners who want to indulge in comforting meals.

Spaghetti Katsu & Butter Rice

The first dish combines the beloved flavors of Hokkaido into one plate. It features perfectly sautéed spaghetti alongside rich butter rice topped with a crispy, thick tonkatsu for a truly filling experience. The essence of this dish lies in its rich meat sauce, created from slow-cooked demi-glace that enhances the natural juiciness and depth of flavor of the meat. This hearty sauce beautifully coats the tonkatsu, spaghetti, and rice, allowing for a delightful journey with each bite that keeps you coming back for more.

Hamburger & Napolitan

The second dish offers a rich experience with three variations of demi-glace coming together to create a deep umami flavor. The hamburger is juicy and tender, providing a satisfying meatiness that complements the robust sauce. The Napolitan features generous, chewy thick noodles that are quickly stir-fried on a sizzling iron plate, capturing the savory aroma of ketchup, resulting in a nostalgic and delightful flavor.

Concept Development

Official comments from the developers highlight that the idea for these comfort food plates came from Hokkaido’s iron plate dishes. They aimed to create a product where multiple beloved menu items can be enjoyed simultaneously on one plate. The attention to detail in terms of ingredient combinations and the balance of sauces ensures a fulfilling and harmonious culinary experience. Each plate represents an accessible option that can be easily purchased at nearby stores.

As you explore Hokkaido’s local offerings this summer, make sure to visit your local Seven-Eleven starting from June 9 to indulge in these delicious comfort food plates. With these unique options, you can experience Hokkaido's flavors without needing to venture far from home.
