Why “Jan” aims for the best value for money at Yakiniku lunch in Otsuka
For yakiniku restaurants, lunch time is a very challenging time when it comes to satisfying customers within a limited amount of time. There are many restaurants in Otsuka, but our customers who choose our restaurant “Jan” among them,“I can’t believe you can eat such delicious Japanese beef at this price!”I want you to be truly surprised. With this in mind, we strive every day to create lunches with the best value for money.
“Meat connoisseur” and “cutting technique” based on years of experience
Out of the many years of experience I have gained as a store manager at Jan, the things I value most are the skill of discerning meat and cutting it. Even though it is called Kuroge Wagyu beef, the meat quality varies greatly depending on the individual cow, the part of the cow, and the condition of the day. We carefully assess the daily purchasing situation and carefully select and purchase meat that is in the best condition. This is the first step in providing truly delicious Yakiniku to our customers.
The cutting techniques of our craftsmen bring out the maximum potential of the meat we purchase. I adjust the angle and thickness of the knife down to the millimeter while checking with my fingertips and my eyes how the fibers of the meat get into the meat and how much fat it coats. We do not compromise on anything, even when it comes to kiritochi or short ribs served at lunchtime. We carefully insert a hidden knife so that you don’t notice any streaks, creating a texture that melts in your mouth with the flavor of the meat and the sweetness of the fat. The accumulation of this daily effort is the secret to being able to offer meat of a quality that rivals that of high-end restaurants, at an approachable price that can only be found in the town of Otsuka.
Very popular in Otsuka! Jan’s recommended Yakiniku lunch menu
From here, we will introduce the lunch menu that we are proud to deliver. Jan’s Yakiniku lunch includes rice, soup, and coffee in addition to the main meat. What’s more, the manager wants us to do our best in the afternoon, so we’re offering large servings of rice for free, so don’t worry if you’re looking for a hearty meal.
1. Overwhelmingly popular! “Wagyu beef short rib lunch”
The “Wagyu Kalbi Lunch” is by far the most popular item on our lunch menu. We use various parts of Kuroge Wagyu beef, so you can fully enjoy the sweetness of the high-quality fat and the natural flavor of the meat, which changes depending on the day. Despite the volume and quality, the price of 1,089 yen (tax included) is a product that embodies our goal of being the best value for money.
2. Luxury “Top Rib Cut Off Lunch” with limited quantity
For those special days when you want to have a slightly more luxurious lunch today or want to treat yourself to some delicious meat, we recommend the limited-edition “Top Rib Cut Off Lunch”. The price is 1,800 yen (tax included). Quantities are limited because we collect the trimmed parts of high-quality short ribs that are served at dinner time, but it is a very popular menu item that often sells out early, as you can enjoy the exquisite flavor that melts in your mouth at an affordable price.
3. Delicious! early! cheap! “Jan’s stew beef bowl”
There are many strong fans other than Yakiniku.“Jan’s stew beef bowl”is. This is our signature bowl, made with various parts of Wagyu beef trimmed in a special sauce, sweet and spicy, and simmered until soft and melty. It’s a hearty dish with plenty of meat on top of rice and topped with homemade namul and kimchi, and goes perfectly with the namul and kimchi. Although it is reasonably priced at 900 yen (tax included), it is packed with the delicious flavor of Wagyu beef.“Delicious!! Fast!! Cheap!!”This menu has achieved this, so you can enjoy it quickly and deliciously even during your short lunch break.
Exquisite side menu to enhance your lunch yakiniku
We also offer a wide variety of side menus to make your Yakiniku lunch even more delicious and customize it to your liking.
Change soup to “Yukkejang Soup”
The standard soup that comes with the lunch set has a soothing and delicious taste, but for an additional 220 yen (tax included), you can change it to our recommended Yukkejang Soup. The spicy and spicy soup is infused with the flavor of Wagyu beef and helps wash away the rich fat from the Yakiniku. After finishing the meat, many customers add the leftover rice to the soup and enjoy it like a cuppa, which is a recommended customization that will make your lunchtime even more satisfying.
“Lunch kimchi” for an additional item
If you want a little more punch with your rice, you can add “lunch kimchi” for 132 yen (tax included). Jan’s kimchi is spicy yet has a richness and sweetness, and eating it alternately with meat will definitely enhance the meal.
“Jan” Yakiniku cultivated by the city of Otsuka and its customers
We at “Jan” have been supported by many customers in the lively and warm town of Otsuka. I absolutely love the nostalgic scenery of the Toden Arakawa Line that passes in front of Otsuka Station, and the atmosphere of the shopping district that retains its old-fashioned, friendly atmosphere.
A variety of customers visit during lunch time, including office workers from nearby offices, local families, and regular customers who have been coming here for many years. As a store manager, there is nothing that makes me happier than hearing customers say, “Eating the meat here will keep you energized in the afternoon!” or “I’ll be back again during my lunch break.” Casual conversations and smiling exchanges with our customers are the biggest driving force for us to purchase quality meat every day and carefully cut each piece of meat with care.
