Soup Curry Garaku

Located on a quiet side street near the Nakano Broadway promenade, this curry shop has a multi-step ordering system, so it’s a good thing they have an English menu. Customers first choose their soup curry type (chicken leg, seafood, vegetable, mushroom, etc), then their soup (house original or a speciality stock for a few hundred yen extra). Next, you can choose some extra toppings (cheese, bacon, extra veggies), your preferred spiciness level, and finally your rice size. We recommend pairing the soup curry with their delicious lassi made with Hokkaido milk. Pro tip: don’t be too cool for the bib they give you – you’ll need it.
