Introducing 4 recommended stores in Jimbocho, a curry battlefield.

Sumatra Curry Kyoeido

  • Just a 1-minute walk from the station on Yasukuni-dori Avenue, 'Sumatra Curry Kyoeido' is long-established, having been founded in 1918. As you go down the stairs of the building with a green billboard, you can see the store door on the right.

    Here, they offer an original roux-based curry from Sumatra, Indonesia that has been made to suit the Japanese taste palette. Their dark black roux, containing more than 20 different spices, is a rich dish that has simmered for multiple hours. The smooth potage provided entices you into a neverending cycle of sweet and spicy.

Curry Restaurant Bondy

  • "Curry Restaurant Bondy" is located in an alley a few steps back from Yasukuni-dori Avenue after leaving the station. Their simmered fruit and vegetable roux is an exquisite gem with a masterful balance of spice and sweetness. The rich roux goes incredibly well with the melted cheese on rice. A tip is to mix the buttered potato with the curry before eating.

Kitchen Nankai Jimbocho

  • "Kitchen Nankai" is about a 4-minute walk from the station towards Ogawamachi. Their signature dish, 'Katsu Curry' is characteristic for its mellow, black roux. Provided with a generous portion of crispy cutlets and cabbage, it is a satisfying dish. There are also plenty of fried food toppings as options, such as the 'cream croquette', 'chicken cutlet', and 'fried shrimp'.

Ethiopia

  • "Ethiopia" is a specialised store about a 3-minute walk from the station, along Meidai-dori Street. The long-simmered roux has a distinctive vegetable flavor and a smooth texture. The curry contains 12 different types of spices including Chinese medicinal herbs, making it a healthy treat. You can choose the spiciness from 0 to 70 so it's a great location for spicy-food lovers.
