Utsunomiya, Tochigi, Japan｜Kobayashi Curry

It is a super famous store in a corner of a residential area. It is a very small store with 4 seats at the counter and 2 seats at the table. When visiting, we recommend 1 person or MAX 2 people. The parking lot is not in front of the store, but a little further away About 6 cars can be parked. The interior of the store is stylish and has a calm space where jazz flows. The austere shopkeeper will respond with polite customer service even though he has few words. The menu is 950 yen for a single curry item. The lunch set with salad, drink, and baked goods was 1400 yen. Affordable. Curry is very spicy. I think that people who are not good at spicy curry are at a useless level, It's the best curry for those who fit. The ingredients are generous and the presentation is beautiful. Salads, Fukujinzuke, drinks and baked sweets All of them were carefully selected and delicious. Thank you for the wonderful space and food.

It was actually my first visit in seven years. Curry that represents Utsunomiya. I think there are two. Even though I don't live in Utsunomiya, and I don't eat at many restaurants in the area, I still want to say this. Because I ate such amazing curry. On this day, I devised the Utsunomiya Golden Course. I was planning to write an article about it in the media, so I didn't want to write it out too fluently. First, we went to "Harry Curry" in Suzumiya for lunch. From interior and exterior to menu and curry. It is a store that deserves respect, with every corner beautifully designed. And a ladder. A specialty store located quietly in a residential area in Shimoguri-cho, Utsunomiya City. "Kobayashi Curry Shop." fart. This is a truly special store. A small curry and rice specialty store with a very good taste. It has the feel of a bar in a residential area, but the last time I came here, I asked the owner and found out that the store was originally part of the main building of his home that had been renovated. I remember him saying, ``It used to be a garage.'' My mother, Mitsuko Kobayashi, has been running a local cooking class called "Mitsuko Kobayashi Cooking Salon" for over 30 years. Their younger sister is also a chef, so their bases are very different. Now, curry. "Chicken curry" Order. Also added salad. Curry has a really neat look on his face. An image on a plate beautifully divided into two parts with curry sauce and white rice. It may sound like a casual presentation, but it gives off an unusual atmosphere. You can see this at a glance. It's edgy. Pour the curry on top of the rice. Even though that's all there is to it, it's clear whether they're being serious about what they're doing or not. Arrangement is like that, and when you pay attention to every detail of a dish, it gains soul. That's what this dish is all about. It even makes you feel a tangy atmosphere. Curry sauce, absolutely amazing. The tuning is such that the bitterness suppresses the umami and sweetness from above and prevents them from escaping. The distinctive oriental scent, perhaps clove or cinnamon, is strong and asserts its individuality. A thick and creamy flavor with a hint of high-quality milk fat. However, it is strange that it does not feel heavy at all. I'm eating delicious curry, but I'm not eating cake...no, that's not right. It leaves a lingering aroma in your mouth, like after eating a ginger man cookie at Christmas. Maybe it feels that way because the cloves and cinnamon are strong. That's so much fun. The chicken was fluffy, but not overdone. And there are a lot of them. It's very satisfying. What I would like to highlight is the rice. The rice is very delicious. The white rice is so delicious that I can't help but wonder what it is. Delicious Japanese rice that will make you want even a little pickled plum. This is fantastic. When people talk about the taste of curry, one thing that surprisingly doesn't come up is white rice. This is not true for Indian or Asian cuisine, but for Japanese-style curry and rice, the white rice factor is extremely important. It shouldn't be too delicious, but food that isn't delicious is outrageous. That balance is difficult. The food at Kobayashi Curry Shop is extremely delicious. In the end, the value of a store is determined by how far and how seriously it can be done. Sitting at this counter, I am reminded of this obvious fact. The Fukujinzuke is homemade and has a nice ginger flavor that is not too sweet, and the salad is made with homemade pickles that are not too sour like pickled vegetables.Everything is carefully made. You could say it's a showcase of what curry and rice would look like if you thoroughly investigated it. However, it is laughable to give a title such as ``ultimate'' because of the use of expensive ingredients. Anyone who has ever done something like that should visit this place at least once. You should feel like your face is on fire.

A wonderful shop where you can feel the master's commitment with all five senses. What I received was today's curry wild pork curry lunch set. Large chunks of pork are stuffed into the spiced roux. The amount of rice is large, and you can change the amount verbally to a large or small amount. Jazz in the store? BGM and cooking sounds echo, and the master is silent, so you can concentrate on curry and rice in a good way. It also contributes to the fact that there are no glaring pops or notes that are common in restaurants. handmade by a master? The biscotti I received from the sweets is also very delicious. A shop where you want to go alone, not with multiple people. 4 counter seats and 1 table seat for two. When all seats are full, we will call you by mobile phone as soon as a vacant seat becomes available.
