As part of the popular 'Special Bento' series offered by 'WATAMI's Home Meal Delivery,' the 'Charcoal-Grilled Unaju' will be delivered in July. This special bento uses charcoal grilling to achieve rich flavor and aroma, followed by a steaming process to create a tender, fluffy texture. It is finished with a savory sauce. Side dishes are also carefully crafted, with spinach topped with roasted powder made from organic nagaimo (yam) grown at the group's 'WATAMI Farm.'

During the hot summer months when appetite loss is common, especially among the elderly, 'WATAMI's Home Meal Delivery' aims to provide customers with seasonal, luxurious meals that support both physical and mental well-being.
