Two appetizers showcasing plump, juicy oysters will also be available at the same time.

A Closer Look at the Three Soup Pastas
Oyster and Colorful Vegetable Cream Soup Pasta
The star of this fair. A cream soup infused with oyster flavor is paired with oysters, cabbage, bell peppers, spinach and sliced bacon. Packed with the savory depth of oysters and the natural sweetness of vegetables, it is a soul-warming, deeply flavorful dish that is both colorful and satisfying.
Adding the yuzu kosho served on the side brings a refreshing aroma and a gentle kick of heat. We recommend enjoying the cream soup as-is first, then stirring in the yuzu kosho partway through to change things up—a thoughtful touch that keeps every bite interesting to the very end.
- Price: ¥1,490 (¥1,639 incl. tax)
- Main ingredients: oysters, cabbage, bell peppers, spinach, sliced bacon
- On the side: yuzu kosho (citrus chili paste)
Snow Crab and Scallop Tomato Cream Soup Pasta
A mellow tomato cream soup pasta in which the umami of seafood such as crab and scallops harmonizes with the gentle acidity of tomato. The soup pasta, made with scallops, clams and kobashira (small adductor muscles), is topped with shredded snow crab meat and crab leg meat. The tomato’s acidity adds a bright accent, giving this rich dish a clean finish. Savor the luxurious flavors woven together by a variety of seafood.
- Price: ¥1,390 (¥1,529 incl. tax)
- Main ingredients: scallops, clams, kobashira, snow crab (shredded meat and leg meat)
Chunky Bacon Carbonara Soup Pasta
Jolly Pasta’s popular carbonara reimagined as a soup pasta. The carbonara soup, rich with egg and cheese, is combined with thick-cut house-made bacon, bacon sticks and maitake mushrooms for a hearty plate. The savory bacon and maitake deepen the rich soup, while black pepper adds a lively, spicy accent. Add the fluffy cheese served on the side for an even richer taste.
- Price: ¥1,290 (¥1,419 incl. tax)
- Main ingredients: thick-cut house-made bacon, bacon sticks, maitake mushrooms
- On the side: fluffy cheese
Two Oyster Appetizers Also on the Menu
Alongside the soup pastas, two appetizers let you enjoy the savory flavor and plump texture of oysters. One is an ajillo cooked in oil, the other a butter sauté with spinach—two different cooking styles. Pairing one with a soup pasta is a great way to enjoy more oysters in a single meal.
- Oyster Ajillo: ¥790 (¥869 incl. tax)
- Oyster and Spinach Butter Sauté: ¥690 (¥759 incl. tax)
Sample Combination Prices
For example, the Oyster and Colorful Vegetable Cream Soup Pasta with the Oyster Ajillo comes to ¥2,508 including tax—a perfect pairing for oyster lovers. The Snow Crab and Scallop Tomato Cream Soup Pasta with the Oyster and Spinach Butter Sauté totals ¥2,288, and the Chunky Bacon Carbonara Soup Pasta with the same sauté totals ¥2,178 (all figures are simple sums of the tax-inclusive prices).
Summary
Oyster cream, seafood tomato cream and bacon carbonara—this fair brings together three soup pastas with distinctly different flavor profiles, so you can choose according to your mood and taste. The fair starts November 3 (Tue, holiday), and the items are scheduled to be available at all 322 locations. On a chilly day, why not stop by your nearest Jolly Pasta for a warming bowl of soup pasta?
