The 4 Chicken Rice items, which had a “To Be Discontinued Successively” notice added on April 7, were officially discontinued about two weeks later. Chicken Rice was a long-running staple on Matsuya’s regular menu, while Seared Mayo Spicy Chicken Rice was a relatively new item released on February 26.
Discontinuation Notice Added to Garlic Butter Pork Short Rib & Egg Bowl
A “*To Be Discontinued Successively” notice was newly added to the Garlic Butter Pork Short Rib & Egg Bowl (790 yen, store-limited), which was released on March 31 alongside the Chicken Butter Series. This marks a discontinuation announcement about three weeks after launch.
Limited-Time Flag Set on Grilled Pork Loin Set Meal and Salt-based Green Onion Bowl
A limited-time flag was also set today on the Set Meal of Grilled Pork Loin and the Salt-based Green Onion Bowl, both added today. This was not made explicit in any announcement, but the menu data now formally treats them as limited-time items.
Summary of Today’s Menu Changes
| Change | Count |
|---|---|
| Delisted | 10 items |
| Discontinuation notice added | 1 item (Garlic Butter Pork Short Rib & Egg Bowl) |
| Limited-time flag set | 2 items (Set Meal of Grilled Pork Loin, Salt-based Green Onion Bowl) |
Editor's Note
10 items discontinued, plus a discontinuation notice on 1 more. Matsuya's law strikes again: a new menu's launch day doubles as someone else's farewell day. The end of Chicken Rice feels like the close of an era.
