Notable Nutritional Figures
The Set Meal (Regular Serving) comes to 1,191kcal, with 62.9g of fat and 6.00g of salt equivalent. The Double Serving reaches 1,979kcal, covering 70–90% of an adult man’s estimated daily energy requirement (2,200–2,700kcal) in a single meal. Its fat content of 123.7g far exceeds the recommended daily amount.
“Stir-fried Chicken with Butter Soy Sauce” (without rice) differs from the Set Meal by only 24kcal. The main difference isn’t the rice but whether miso soup is included — the side dish alone accounts for 1,167kcal.
The new “Garlic Butter Pork Short Rib & Egg Bowl” offers the highest calorie-per-yen ratio among the three, at 790 yen for 1,039kcal.
Comparison with the Original Announcement
The official announcement on March 26 listed all six variations, but only the three items above were posted as individual products on the menu page. The Double and Only options are registered as size variations under each menu item.
| Announced Item Name | Price | Listed on Menu Page |
|---|---|---|
| Stir-fried Chicken with Butter Soy Sauce Set Meal | 980 yen | Yes |
| Stir-fried Chicken with Butter Soy Sauce Set Meal (Double) | 1,470 yen | Variation |

| Stir-fried Chicken with Butter Soy Sauce (Only) | 780 yen | Variation |

Garlic Butter Pork Short Rib & Egg Bowl Is Store-Limited
The new “Garlic Butter Pork Short Rib & Egg Bowl” (790 yen), released at the same time, is listed on the menu page as a “Store-limited Menu Item.” While the announcement presented all the items on equal footing, in practice only this one item is available at a limited number of stores.
Editor's Note
The Double Serving of the chicken butter dish clocks in at nearly 2,000kcal — the calorie count doubles right along with the portion. Anyone who can finish it deserves respect.
