Japan's Hanamaru Udon and Yokamon‑do Senno launch budget-friendly menu deals

A take‑out shop in Fukuoka’s Sawara‑ku, Yokamon‑do Senno, is offering a chicken‑katsu all‑you‑can‑eat set for ¥1,000. Customers can fill a paper box with the breaded chicken pieces, typically taking home about 2–3 kg. The promotion runs daily, with freshly fried katsu on Tuesdays and frozen portions on other days, and includes a variety of sizes and flavored batters.

Nationwide udon chain Hanamaru Udon is running a limited‑time “Hanamaru Thanksgiving Udon” from 7 August to 31 August. Priced at ¥870, the dish features three large shrimp tempura pieces atop a cold or hot broth‑based udon, topped with grated daikon and flower‑shaped kamaboko. Each order also includes a random “Hanamaru Ghost” sticker as a collectible. The promotion is available at all Hanamaru Udon locations across Japan.
