ASCII Gourmand Matsuya "Pork Meshi" Renewed and Revived Average 350 yen is nice, but how do you feel the fat content of lean meat?

"Pig Meshi" Matsuya 350 yen Released on February 1 https://www.matsuyafoods.co.jp/matsuya/news_lp/220201.html

Pork rice is renewed and revived

I'm playing "Pokémon LEGENDS Arceus". It's a game in which wild Pokemon attack here (that is, against humans) directly, so if you're not careful, it's a Shura game where you eat "Kirisaku" (I think) and "Hakaikousen" and go down. As a kid, I think you can see why Dr. Oakid said, "It's dangerous to get into the grass."

If you get hooked on the game, it will be troublesome to cook meals. So whether to eat or buy outside ... Since there is no dinner at this time of year, it is desirable to eat out silently or take out easily.

I feel that the number of people going to beef bowl chain stores has increased. Not only take-out, but also eat at the store. Of course, I don't talk because I go alone, and when I get what I ordered, I take off the mask and eat silently, and when I finish eating, I immediately put on the mask and leave the store immediately.

The theme this time is pork bowl. There are many kinds of pork bowls in one bite. In the beef bowl chain, it was difficult to procure beef due to the American BSE problem in December 2003, so it was positioned as a menu that was developed all together.

After all, the aspect of being a "substitute for beef bowl" was big. Of course, it wasn't the beef bowl itself, so some people said it was "not enough" and others said "I like this one too".

By the way, in Matsuya, it was "Buta-meshi", but in Yoshinoya, it was called "Butadon", and in Sukiya, it was called "Butadon".

By the way, Matsuya will release "Pig Meshi" at stores nationwide from February 1st. Various sizes are available for an average of 350 yen.

Matsuya's pork rice, which was sold out in January 2012. Since then, it has appeared as a limited-time menu and a store-limited menu, but it is the first time in about 10 years that it will be sold on a large scale.

Unlike the previous sale, the newly introduced pork butt uses lean pork shoulder loin and has been renewed for a refreshing taste. You can enjoy the fluffy texture of pork while feeling the sweetness of onions.

At the same time, we also sell the refreshing "Grated Ponzu Pork Meshi", "Spicy Green Onion Tama Pork Meshi" with spicy special sauce on green onions and soft-boiled eggs, and "Pig Plate" (single item). All of them are priced at less than 500 yen, which is a reasonable price in Matsuya's menu.

Pork rice (normal) 350 yen Grated ponzu pork rice (normal) 450 yen Spicy green onion tama pork rice (normal) 460 yen Pork plate (normal) 270 yen * Miso soup is not included, purchased separately for 60 yen Possible) * The tax-included price for in-store and take-out is the same

As an aside, as of February 2, you can eat "Butadon" and "Gyudon" at Matsuya, Yoshinoya, and Sukiya. In the case of Matsuya, it is "pork rice" and "beef rice". The prices (both are in average) are as follows. Matsuya has the lowest prices in the industry for both pigs and cows. Sukiya with the same amount of pork and cow is also nice.

Butadon Gyudon Matsuya average 350 yen Average 380 yen Yoshinoya average 393 yen Average 426 yen Sukiya average 400 yen Average 400 yen

Although it has a refreshing taste, it has not changed dramatically ...

It's a new pig meal.I feel like it looks the same as it was 10 years ago

Renewal with a refreshing taste ... However, it is difficult to judge by appearance from the pork rice that was once sold. It will be the first time for some people to meet in 10 years, so it's not surprising that some people have vague memories, saying "I don't remember anymore" or "I feel like this."

I made a raw egg and pork soup set (additional 250 yen)

I can't compare it with the old pork, so I have no choice but to compare it with the taste in my memory, but I feel that the use of lean meat makes it a refreshing taste. Isn't it too greasy?

I'm a little worried about the "fluffy texture" of the complaint. It's soft, but some people may feel that it's lumpy ... I think it has a texture. For better or for worse, the individuality of pork loin has come out.

Use red meat ... it's hard to understand visually

The direction of the essential seasoning is similar to that of beef rice, and even if you say that "beef rice has become pork", I think it is basically wrong. The sweetness of the onions is the same as before. If you know the old pig rice, I would like to explain that it is the direction.

The usual beef rice and this time's pork rice. It's not that which is better or worse, but the difference in taste between beef and pork is the same ... It may be a matter of taste.

Seasoning is similar to beef rice

However, I think the juicy feeling is a little inferior to beef rice. It's not that lean pork is completely free of sashi (fat), but the texture and richness of the fat is different from that of beef.

In that respect, I would like to recommend the way to eat raw eggs (or soft-boiled eggs). It adds thickness and adds depth to the taste. If this is also a matter of taste, it's up to that point, but I think it's a good match. Originally, it doesn't make a noise when it is said that it goes well with beef rice.

Compatibility with raw eggs is ○

Speaking of compatibility, isn't the combination with red pickled ginger on the table better than beef rice? I think. Because it's pork + ginger, there's no reason it doesn't fit. I felt that it was an "ant" even if I put a little more on it.

I think it's okay to add a little more red pickled ginger

Even though it was renewed and used lean meat, the atmosphere would be like this if it were "pork meat that comes out at Matsuya". It hasn't changed much, and it's more refreshing than beef rice.

By the way, when I asked if it would be a regular product, he said, "If it is doing well, we will continue to sell it." That's right, but it seems certain that it depends on future sales.

The pork was covered with pork and pork soup

It's messed up, chopsticks don't stop, you should eat this at all ... it's not an exaggeration. However, with the price of 350 yen (normal), I am happy that the number of options that can be easily eaten has increased.

It has a different texture and taste from beef rice (it's natural because the meat is different), so I think it's okay to eat differently depending on the mood of the day. That's all from the field.
