KINTON RAMEN Introduces Summer Ramencation, Bringing Japan’s Konbini Culture to Canada
A Summer combo that is inclusive, new and worth the money.
TORONTO, ON — You do not need a plane ticket to experience one of Japan’s most beloved food traditions this summer.
KINTON RAMEN is giving Canadians a taste of Konbini culture with the launch of Summer Ramencation. A limited-time offering inspired by the convenience stores that have become an essential part of daily life across Japan.
For anyone who has travelled to Japan, the word Konbini is instantly familiar. These convenience stores are known for serving fresh, affordable, and high-quality meals at any time of day. They’re a destination for quick lunches, late-night cravings, seasonal specialties, and everyday comfort food. Proving that convenience and quality can go hand in hand.
Now, KINTON RAMEN is bringing that same spirit across Canada.
No Passport Required to Experience Japan
Built around the idea that great food should be accessible, satisfying, and easy to enjoy, Summer Ramencation combines KINTON RAMEN’s signature ramen experience with refreshing seasonal flavours perfect for the warmer months.
The limited-time combo includes:
- A bowl of KINTON RAMEN’s handcrafted ramen
- A side dish
- A choice of summer beverage or Coca-Cola Family drink
Available now for $14.99, the promotion offers guests a simple way to enjoy a complete meal inspired by the convenience and quality that define Japan’s Konbini culture.
“Konbini culture is such a unique part of Japan’s food landscape because it shows that convenience does not have to mean compromising on quality,” says Alan De Luna, Senior Marketing Manager at Foodtastic, the parent company of KINTON RAMEN. “It is about creating everyday food experiences that are delicious, accessible, and thoughtfully prepared—values that align closely with what we strive to bring to our guests at KINTON RAMEN.”
Why Konbini Culture Has Captivated Food Lovers Worldwide
Japanese Konbini have earned a reputation for offering freshly prepared meals, seasonal menu items, and an impressive variety of food choices. Which attracts everyone from office workers and students to tourists and late-night diners.
This has become a cultural phenomenon. Making the quality of food available whenever and wherever it is needed inspired the concept of Summer Ramencation.
Whether guests are grabbing lunch during a busy workday, catching up with friends after work, or looking for a comforting meal after a summer outing. The promotion offers an easy way to experience a small piece of Japan’s food culture without leaving Canada.
Pair It With a Summer Favourite
No summer meal is complete without something refreshing to sip on.
Guests can pair their ramen combo with seasonal drinks including Mango Lemonade and Lychee Iced Tea, two warm-weather favourites that complement the rich flavours of KINTON RAMEN’s signature broths.
“Summer is the perfect time to explore new flavours and experiences,” adds De Luna. “With Summer Ramencation, we’re excited to share a piece of Japanese food culture with our guests and create a fun, accessible way for them to experience the spirit of Konbini without leaving their community.”
Available Across Canada for a Limited Time
Summer Ramencation is available now at participating KINTON RAMEN locations across Canada for a limited time.
For ramen lovers, Japan enthusiasts, and anyone looking for an easy summer meal with a cultural twist, it might just be the closest thing to a Japanese food adventure this season.
