At least during the early stages of the game, most players of Persona 3 Reload will spend their days making social connections and their nights boosting their social stats. The restaurants of the Iwatodai Strip Mall are especially good for these boosts, since each one boosts a social stat by more than a normal activity like studying at home.
However, each of the three main restaurants also has a second menu item that's only available on certain days of the week. They cost more, but they also boost your Persona 3 Reload social stats by a larger amount. The only issue is that you'll need to meet some requirements if you want to purchase these meals.

How to Unlock Seafood Full Course and the Special Hagakure Bowl
The Wakatsu Kitchen's Seafood Full Course is available on Monday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday while the Special Hagakure Bowl at Hagakure Ramen is for sale on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. When you first enter one of these establishments on one of these days, the game will tell you that this special menu item is available.
However, you won't be able to buy either of these meals, at least not at first. This is because you need to reach a certain rating in a social skill first. To buy the Seafood Full Course, you need to reach rank 3 of Charm (Confident), and to buy the Special Hagakure Bowl you need to reach rank 3 of Courage (Determined). Once your stats are high enough, the next time you enter the restaurant on the right day you'll have no trouble buying the better option.
Of course, you also need enough money to pay for the meal. The Seafood Full Course costs 900 yen, and the Special Hagakure Bowl costs 1,200 yen.

How to Unlock the Weekend Wilduck Set
You don't need your Academics at 3 to get the Weekend Wilduck Set. Instead, you'll need to unlock Elizabeth's quests and complete a specific challenge.
The quest in question is 11, "Please prevail in the Big Eater Challenge." To even access this quest, you'll need to complete three others:
- Quest 1: "Bring me a Muscle Drink." You can buy a Muscle Drink from Aohige Pharmacy at any point after you get access to shops.
- Quest 9: "I'd like to try all kinds of drinks." The vending machines you need to raid are at the Port Island Station, the third floor of the Iwatodai Strip Mall, the Iwatodai Station, and on floors two and three of the Iwatodai Dorm.
- Quest 10: "I'd like to try a beef bowl." You need to buy an Umiushi Beef Bowl, and to get one you need to become an Umiushi member.
With all that done, you can attempt the Big Eater Challenge. After you accept this quest, you should be able to visit Wilduck every night and pay 1,800 yen to take on the challenge.
Unlike the eating challenges in other Persona games, you don't need high stats to beat the Big Eater Challenge. Instead, you need to choose the right options:
- Look away from the burgers
- Eat without stopping
- Imagine something sour
If you choose the wrong option, you'll get the same Courage boost you would have gotten from eating a Mystery Burger. If you succeed, you'll get a big boost to all three social stats, complete Elizabeth's quest, and get access to the Weekend Wilduck Set. Like the name suggests, the set is available on Saturdays and Sundays, and it only costs 1,200 yen.
