(Natto and Beef bowl Meal 450 Yen)


Yoshinoya, known as the most popular beef bowl chain, offers morning menus.


What you can eat here is a typical breakfast in Japan. As a basic meal, they offer rice, soy-soup and dried seaweed. In addition to these, there is a main topping, let’s order your favorite toppings.


Main toppings

Egg - It’s quite common to eat rice simply topped with a raw egg for breakfast.
Natto - Natto is a traditional food made from fermented soybeans. Japanese people believe that eating Natto for breakfast brings a sense of satiety, besides that, Natto is known as diet for good health.
Mendaiko - This is also a common food for breakfast.


Since Yoshinoya is Beef bowl store, I also recommend eating the Beef Bowl.


Regular Beef Bowl 380 Yen as well

Guess which one is popular as Japanese breakfast, Rice or Bread? The answer is...Bread. Especially older women prefer bread to rice. which means, a lot of restaurants in Japan also offer a western style breakfast. Such as meal with bread, scrambled egg and Coffee. The most well-known place where you can have a western style meal is here, Komeda Coffee. If you order a drink during their morning service time, you can get a free morning meals (toasted bread, warm boiled eggs)
