Koya, Wakayama, Japan｜Komi coffee

The initial draw to this cute cafe was the egg coffee but the curry hit the spot! The POS machine has an English option and is easy to understand and navigate while ordering. The red curry called to me during the brisk weather and I was pleasantly surprised at the heat level (normally it's sadly underwhelming). It was perfectly balanced with the light taste of coconut milk(?), vegetables, chicken, and the heat 🌶️ was a nice slow burn. It did not overtake the flavor of the entire curry (but it was a bit too spicy for my friend). The egg coffee is a black coffee with an egg yolk. The taste of the coffee itself was clean and smooth and mixing in the yolk created a creamy texture. No egg smell and I didn't feel like it changed the taste too much - like adding cream to your coffee.

Cozy little cafe with yummy food and drink! They have a machine in English and Japanese to make your order, and you can choose eat in or take out. It takes a bit of time to get the food, but it is freshly made! My friend and I had different curries from the daily lunch sets, and they were very good! They also had soy milk drinks for my lactose free self. :)

I had the Kobe beef curry special- it and all of the accompaniments were delicious! So glad I stopped in!
