Chibou Co., Ltd. (head office: Chuo Ward, Osaka City) will host a limited-time "Summer Lemon Fair" at its basic-concept Okonomiyaki Chibou restaurants from July 1 (Wed), 2026 to August 9 (Sun), featuring early summer "cool flavors" served on the teppan grill.

Concept Background ■

Revolutionizing summer's image of "heavy, rich" food—why lemons at a teppan grill now?

July marks the end of the rainy season and a rapid rise in temperature, making it a time when summer fatigue and tiredness often begin. Traditionally, rich teppan dishes have been less appealing during summer months. To address this seasonal challenge, Chibou has turned its focus to lemons.

Fatigue recovery and appetite stimulation ■

Harnessing the power of "citric acid" found in lemons, this menu gently supports the body through seasonal changes in summer.

Refreshing a classic image ■

By adding a refreshing tang and aroma, Chibou redefines the image of teppan dishes. Delivering the "light and refreshing" taste desired by women and younger customers, the fair introduces a new appeal of teppan cooking.

Furthermore, the fair's menu has been developed with attention to a chain of the five senses—sound, taste, aroma, and sight. The enticing aromas of charred soy sauce, basil, and lemon spreading through the restaurant, along with the lively sizzling sound of dishes cooking on the hotplate, intensely stimulate customers' appetites.

Three limited-time recommended menu items to awaken summer appetites! ■

1. 【Flagship highlight】 Shirasu-packed Lemon Soy Sauce Yakisoba

Price: ¥1,700 (tax included) ※ Prices may vary by location.

Features: A special yakisoba combining the rich flavor of charred soy sauce and the delicate taste of shirasu (whitebait), perfectly balanced with a refreshing hint of lemon. Don't miss the eye-catching visual appeal: the bright yellow of lemon, generous portions of shirasu, and colorful Kyoto-style negi green onions create a photogenic dish. With a clean, refreshing aftertaste, this is the season's definitive top menu item that delivers instant deliciousness.

2. 【A refreshing new idea】 Refreshing Genovese-style Yakisoba

Price: ¥1,700 (tax included)

Features: A luxurious blend of squid tentacles, young corn, and tomatoes, finished with a special "salt-based sauce × basil sauce." The rich aroma of basil and deep umami of the salt sauce are sharply enhanced by the tang of lemon. This innovative Western-style summer dish perfectly targets dinner demand from women who find traditional sauce-based teppan dishes too heavy for summer.

3. 【Perfect side dish】 Chunky Summer Vegetable Garlic Shrimp

Price: ¥880 (tax included)

Features: Plump, juicy shrimp combined with broccoli, young corn, tomatoes, and spicy green chili, all simmered in a Spanish-style ajillo sauce. The fragrant crisp-fried garlic, rich depth of flavor, and subtle heat make this the ultimate snack that keeps cold beer and highballs flowing. Ideal as a "first order" before enjoying the main yakisoba.

Refreshing drinks and desserts to enjoy with your meal ■

We've also prepared a lineup of cool, visually refreshing drinks and desserts that pair perfectly with the limited-time food menu. Add them to your meal for an even more refreshing summer experience.
