Matsuya Launches Autumn Staple 'Stir-fried Pork and Eggplant with Spicy Miso Set Meal' in 3 Sizes

Matsuya released the set meal “Stir-fried Pork and Eggplant with Spicy Miso Set Meal” on September 8. It also appeared the same day on Matsuya’s official website menu page in three sizes: Only for 680 yen, Set Meal for 880 yen, and Double for 1,370 yen. This year’s announcement described it as “a hallmark of Matsuya’s autumn, beloved for 18 years,” marking it as a seasonal staple that arrives each autumn.

The 880 yen Set Meal price announced in advance carried over unchanged to the actual listing. The menu page also newly showed the per-size pricing and nutritional information that the advance announcement alone hadn’t revealed.

Pricing and Nutrition Across the 3 Sizes

The nutritional information for the Only, Set Meal, and Double sizes is as follows.

Size	Price	Energy	Protein	Fat	Carbohydrates	Salt Equivalent
Only	680 yen	502kcal	19.3g	37.2g	24.7g	4.1g
Set Meal	880 yen	906kcal	27.4g	39.3g	109.6g	5.8g
Double	1,370 yen	1,409kcal	46.7g	76.5g	134.2g	9.9g

The Set Meal comes with rice and salad, while the Only size includes just the main dish. The Only size comes in at 502 kcal, but adding rice for the Set Meal pushes it up to 906 kcal, and the Double, with double the main dish, reaches 1,409 kcal and 9.9g of salt equivalent — a serving built for volume.

The Non-Set-Meal Line Announced in the Notice

The notice dated September 3 announced, in addition to the Set Meal (880 yen) and its Double (1,370 yen), an Only-style item without rice or salad called “Stir-fried Pork and Eggplant with Spicy Miso” (780 yen) and its Double (1,270 yen) as part of the lineup. As of September 8, only the three price points of the Set Meal line appear on the menu page.

An Autumn Staple — Sold Last Year Under the Name “Thick Pork Boneless Short Rib”

Looking back through past announcements, “Stir-fried Pork and Eggplant with Spicy Miso” is an item whose autumn launch has been announced repeatedly, and last year, in 2025, it was released under the name “Stir-fried Thick Pork Boneless Short Rib and Eggplant with Spicy Miso.” This year it returns under its original name, “Stir-fried Pork and Eggplant with Spicy Miso Set Meal.”

Where It Sits in the Set Meal Price Range

Within the set meal price range, this item sits one tier above the Stir-fried Pork with Ginger Soy Sauce Set Meal and one tier below the Yakiniku Beef Set Meal, Yakiniku Boneless Short Rib Set Meal, and Pork & Kimchi Set Meal. Every size is 30 yen more than the Stir-fried Pork with Ginger Soy Sauce Set Meal, and 10 yen less than the three set meals that line up at 890 yen.
