Chicken Specialty Store 'Torisaku' Collaborates with Tanita Cafe: 'Tori-Maru Shokudo x Tanita Cafe' to Reopen at Aeon Mall Kawaguchi on June 4th (Thursday)

Big Create Co., Ltd., which operates restaurants nationwide such as the chicken specialty store 'Torisaku' and the donut specialty store 'JACK IN THE DONUTS,' will open a collaboration store with Tanita Cafe, 'Tori-Maru Shokudo x Tanita Cafe,' at Aeon Mall Kawaguchi in Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture, on June 4th (Thursday). The chicken specialty store 'Torisaku,' known for its popular karaage (fried chicken), 'Karaage Mountain,' and oyakodon (chicken and egg bowl) made with carefully selected chicken and eggs, has rebranded to 'Tori-Maru Shokudo x Tanita Cafe' in collaboration with 'Tanita Cafe,' which focuses on mental health. While maintaining the taste of the chicken dishes customers have loved, the restaurant will offer a more enriched menu of set meals that are calorie-conscious and nutritionally balanced, making them suitable for daily consumption. Under the concept of 'Let's eat 1/2 of our daily vegetable requirement = 175g of vegetables,' 'Tori-Maru Shokudo x Tanita Cafe' opened its first store in 2022 and is now in its fifth year. Currently, it operates 13 stores nationwide, including franchise locations, mainly in shopping malls. The brand was born from the desire to provide meals that allow people who tend to be nutritionally deficient to easily consume vegetables while feeling fully satisfied. By utilizing the deliciousness of the existing 'Tori-Maru Shokudo' brand, which specializes in karaage, the restaurant has realized a healthy menu that allows customers to consume more than half of the daily vegetable target recommended by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. The collaboration set meal includes a salad with 7 types of vegetables and 2 popular 'Tanita Cafe' DELI items. Additionally, customers can choose between white rice or 16-grain rice, accompanied by miso soup made with 'Tanita Shokudo's low-salt miso' and vegetable-based dashi. Customers can also choose one of four original chicken dishes (karaage, chicken nanban, toriten, or chicken steak). The karaage is marinated for a long time in a special vegetable broth, allowing the flavor to penetrate deeply. The 'Ultimate Egg-on-Rice' and 'Ultimate Oyakodon' use special eggs from contracted farmers, which contain about 30 times more Vitamin E than regular eggs and have a rich, deep flavor. To commemorate the opening, the first 3,000 customers will receive five '50-yen discount thank-you coupons.'
