Wendy's Golden Week Campaign

Over the Golden Week period, Wendy's is offering an extra patty free on certain sandwiches - but you have to ask for the extra patty to get it.

Sapporo Yebisu Royal Selection

Sapporo's premium brand is Yebisu and they will be offering a limited edition version called Yebisu Royal Selection only in convenience stores from May 20th. The design and use of royal colors, which I think looks very nice, is meant to convey luxury and class. The Yebisu version is made with a special blend of 5 malt varieties: Munich malt, wheat malt, Pilsner malt, caramel malt, and crystal malt. サッポロ エビスビール ミュンヘン麦芽、小麦麦芽、ピルスナー麦芽、カラメル麦芽、クリスタル麦芽

"Brewed with five kinds of quality malt for rich flavor and a complex aroma"

Mr. Donut Mr. Croissant Donut

Mr. Donut is featuring the combination donut croissants that became popular in New York last year. I have not tried the original, but these appear to be selling well. They are good, but very sweet - possibly too close to the US level of sweetness for my taste. I cannot remember where, but in an article I read that donuts in Japan use half the level of glaze as the same donuts in the US. ミスタードーナツ ミスタークロワッサン
