Two-Step Notice on the Same Day for the Base and Lunch Set Versions

That morning, when the ‘Umatoma Hamburg Steak Founding Beef Curry and Rice’ base version (1,280 yen) received its discontinuation notice, the lunch set version (1,330 yen) carried no note and was left as it was. With this latest addition, both lines of Umatoma Hamburg Steak × Founding Beef Curry are now marked “To be discontinued successively.”

The price difference is only 50 yen. The lunch set version comes with rice, salad and miso soup, which is close to the base version with a rice set added separately.

Only the Umatoma Hamburg Steak Version Among the Five Curry Lunch Sets

Of the five curry items listed in the Lunch Set category on May 12, only the Umatoma Hamburg Steak version has a discontinuation notice as of May 26. The other four are unchanged.

Menu item	Price	Discontinuation notice as of May 26

There are two hamburg steak variations: the “Hamburg Steak Founding Beef Curry and Rice Lunch Set (1,200 yen)” and this “Umatoma Hamburg Steak Founding Beef Curry and Rice Lunch Set (1,330 yen).” The plain hamburg steak version was left as is, and only the premium version with Umatoma sauce was targeted. This is the same selection pattern seen in the base version that morning, and it was followed in the Lunch Set category as well.

Discontinuation Progress Across Three “Umatoma Hamburg Steak × Founding Beef Curry” Lines

Menu items combining Umatoma Hamburg Steak with Founding Beef Curry have existed in three lines: the beef tongue version, the base version and the lunch set version. The beef tongue version was officially discontinued on April 7, and today, May 26, discontinuation notices have been given to both the remaining base and lunch set versions.

Line	Price	Discontinuation notice	Official discontinuation
Umatoma Hamburg Steak Founding Beef Tongue Curry and Rice	1,480 yen	March 31, 2026	April 7, 2026
Umatoma Hamburg Steak Founding Beef Curry and Rice (base version)	1,280 yen	May 26, 2026 (that morning)	TBD
Umatoma Hamburg Steak Founding Beef Curry and Rice Lunch Set (this item)	1,330 yen	May 26, 2026 (that afternoon)	TBD

About seven weeks after the beef tongue version ended, the base and lunch set versions received discontinuation notices in quick succession, and the “Umatoma Hamburg Steak + Founding Beef Curry” combination as a whole is now entering its exit from the menu.

Lunch Set Version Joins the May 26 Wave of Discontinuation Notices

Discontinuation notices have been issued for multiple menu items since the morning of May 26. Including this one, it is the fifth discontinuation-related development of the day.
