Coco ICHIBANYA is a listed company and is known for its famous curry house from Japan for more than 30 years. With 1,214 branches in Japan and other counrties such as Thailand, China, USA and South Korea.
Having seen its launch in Somerset, they are always on my list of "To Try" places.
Dining concept was modern with vibrant ambiance and comfortable settings.
One part of their dining which drew my attention was their semi circle dining chairs, comfortable and suitable for food sharing with friends on a round table.
Business name of the curry house was even stamped onto their utensils like spoons and forks. I'm amazed.
To make a meal with our plates of curry rice, we topped up with the choice of two items, mini salad and a drink.
Mini bowl of salad was served first before the main courses. Lettuce, japanese cucumbers, corns kernels and tomato drenched in sesame dressing make up the mini bowl.
Lemon Tea was served!
However, it comes without sugar content and we are suppose to add in the syrup to determine gauge the sweetness level.
While we can choose the level of sweetness from the bubbletea shops, in CocoIchibanya, customers get to have their say in the spice adjustment of the curry withmild (for children)
Level 0 - Standard
Level 1 - Medium Hot
Level 2 - Hot
Level 3 - Extra hot
Level 4 - Super Hot
Level 5 - Crazy Hot
Fried Chicken Omelet Curry was presentable, served in a round white plate loaded with a pool of thick, gooey curry with bright yellow omelet covering up the rice. Pieces of fried chicken was placed surrounding the rice, quarterly sank into the curry pool.
To play safe, we took the default (standard) spice level, it does taste a tad spicy but still without control limits. Chicken was tender and fried to golden brown. Yummy!
It looks a little big more meat here on the plate of Pork Cutlet Omelet Curry. Simply love the breaded texture at the pork exterior and with its meat without being too fatty. Likewise, the omelet was moist with smooth texture, giving a sweet taste which features the characteristics how an omelet taste like from the Japanese.
Breaded pork was a little tough but goes very well with the thick and tasty curry.
Attentive service and its delicious curry give the best reason to make a return here. This place is recommendable to all especially Japanese Curry Lovers!Post
