Kirin City Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President: Jun Hatano) will hold the "Kirin City Kyushu Delicacies Fair" at all 27 Kirin City and Kirin City Plus beer restaurant locations from February 4 (Wednesday) to March 3 (Tuesday), 2026.
Kirin City is a beer restaurant that delivers deliciousness by adding "one extra touch" to producers' dedication.
With the theme of "delivering an early taste of spring," the Kyushu Fair has been held for about one month each February, when temperatures are still low.
The first event was held in February 2014 as a "seasonal ingredients recommendation" featuring three southern Kyushu prefectures (Kumamoto, Miyazaki, and Kagoshima). Since then, menus spotlighting Kyushu ingredients have been developed every February. This marks the 13th year of the fair.
For this 13th edition, the event is titled "Kyushu Delicacies Fair," featuring seven dishes representing all seven Kyushu prefectures.
Additionally, the menu displays the "Kyushu Logo Mark" created by the Kyushu Regional Strategy Council based on the philosophy that "Kyushu is one."

FOOD
From Saga Prefecture: Squid Shumai
Squid is a delicate seafood that doesn't last even a day after being caught raw, and depending on the season and weather, there would inevitably be leftovers. This famous Saga dish was born from the desire not to waste what remained, despite the surplus!
● Squid Shumai ¥880
└ Fluffy and bouncy with an interesting texture. The sweet taste is irresistible.
From Nagasaki Prefecture: Sara Udon
"Sara udon," originally made with thick noodles, was created by the inventor of champon. Even today in Nagasaki, there is a clear distinction between "thick-noodle sara udon" and "thin-noodle sara udon." Now it has nationwide recognition!
● Sara Udon, Kirin City Style ¥880
└ Nagasaki's famous dish arranged in Kirin City style. Perfect as an appetizer or a meal.
From Fukuoka Prefecture: Mentaiko (Spicy Cod Roe)
Yamaya's karashi mentaiko has been made using the same manufacturing method since the company's founding, with "master's sauce" being passed down through generations. This specialty mentaiko, created from carefully selected raw materials, is delivered with Kirin City's unique cooking method!

└ Specialty mentaiko in a fluffy soufflé omelette! Mix well before eating.

From Kumamoto Prefecture: Karashi Renkon (Mustard-Stuffed Lotus Root)

● Karashi Renkon ¥600
└ The spicy kick is irresistible! Enjoy it little by little!
From Miyazaki Prefecture: Chicken Nanban
