Matsuya is promoting it as “a refreshingly spicy flavor to stimulate your appetite in early summer, with two kinds of sauce and crisp vegetables that taste better the more you mix them.” It says the dish is made with a double sauce of tangy, refreshing salsa sauce and taco rice sauce packed with the savory flavor of ground meat.
