Discover the New Summer Special Spicy Sandwiches at Age.3 in Tokyo

Age.3 Unveils Exciting Summer Menu

Age.3, the renowned fried sandwich specialist based in Ginza, Tokyo, is set to launch its new summer menu on August 1, 2026. The menu features three unique spicy sandwiches titled Umakara Yakiniku, Umakara Cheese Curry, and Umakara Napolitan. The theme for this collection is Summer Spicy, encouraging customers to experience a combination of heat and deliciousness that beckons another bite.

A New Definition of Spice

Unlike traditional dishes that simply focus on extreme levels of heat, Age.3 aims to enhance the overall taste of the ingredients with a flavorful heat dubbed Umakara. Each sandwich is expertly designed to balance and amplify the natural flavors of its ingredients.

The Umakara Yakiniku showcases beef marinated in a sweet sauce made from five different fruits, served with a delightful onsen egg, potato salad, lettuce, and a sprinkle of white sesame. The spice profile includes the fierce Bhut Jolokia chili complemented with sliced jalapeños and circular red chili slices.

Meanwhile, the Umakara Cheese Curry features a spice-infused curry those in love with cheese will adore — a mix of mozzarella and parsley balances the richness. For this dish, Bhut Jolokia again takes center stage along with its spicy companions.

Finally, the Umakara Napolitan merges the nostalgic flavors of napolitan pasta with a gooey egg and shaved cheese, where the iconic TABASCO® sauce is used to elevate its spiciness.

Focusing on Sensory Experience

Kohei Matsushita, the Executive Director and Head Chef at Age.3, stated, "In traditional Japanese cuisine, spice is not about overwhelming heat but enhancing the ingredients. We carefully curated the heat levels that pair beautifully with the meat’s fat, the richness of cheese, and the acidity of napolitan.” The goal is to provide an enticing challenge where customers crave another bite, driven not by sheer heat but by the perfectly balanced flavors.

Age.3's Expansion: A Global Sensation

Kicking off in Ginza, Age.3's incredible journey continues beyond Japan as the brand expands to popular tourist destinations and international cities including Shanghai, Sydney, Manila, and Dubai. The appeal of freshly made fried sandwiches and their visually enticing nature attract customers from diverse backgrounds, resulting in long lines at its locations.

Their uniquely constructed fried sandwiches perfectly align with the walking food culture prevalent in global tourist spots. For instance, the recently opened Age.3 Hida Takayama caters to visitors wanting to indulge in Japanese street food while exploring this culturally rich city.
