Hokkaido's Famous Soup Curry 'Suage' Makes Its Kansai Debut in Osaka

Suage Brings Hokkaido's Soup Curry to Osaka

On April 23, 2026, Suage, a renowned soup curry expert from Hokkaido, will open its inaugural store in Kansai at the 10th floor of LUCA Osaka, located directly above Osaka Station. With this strategic location, Suage aims to attract both locals and tourists, introducing them to the authentic taste of Hokkaido.

The Journey of Suage

Founded in 2007 in Sapporo, Suage has thrived by maintaining its dedication to using high-quality ingredients and authentic cooking methods. The cultural significance of soup curry in Hokkaido, particularly in Sapporo, is profound, with over 200 establishments dedicated to this culinary art form. As a must-try delicacy for visitors in Hokkaido, Suage has expanded its reach with multiple outlets in Tokyo while remaining true to its roots.

The phenomenon of spice curry originating from Osaka has garnered immense popularity across Japan, making now the perfect time for Suage to introduce its tasty soup curries to the Kansai food scene. The company's decision to establish a flagship store in Osaka highlights their commitment to expanding the soup curry narrative further into the western region of the country.

Exciting Features of the New Store

LUCA Osaka was particularly chosen for its exceptional accessibility from Osaka Station, one of the busiest transportation hubs in Japan. The store is designed to welcome both residents and travelers, aiming to deliver an unforgettable first experience with soup curry. As the flagship store for the Kansai region, Suage intends to play a significant role in the local culinary landscape.

Within the store, the focus remains firmly placed on utilizing Hokkaido ingredients and traditional cooking methods. Diners can look forward to enjoying various local vegetables grown under Hokkaido's unique temperature fluctuations, which enhance their sweetness. Onion and tomato, slow-cooked to unlock their savory depths, form the base of the rich and flavorful soup. Every order features tempura-style fried ingredients, bringing a delightful texture and aroma that elevates the dish further.

Signature Menu Item
The highlight of the menu, 'Crispy Sakura Chicken with Seven Vegetable Curry' (1,815 yen including tax), showcases Hokkaido's Sakura chicken, known for its distinctive pink meat. The chicken is carefully grilled to achieve a crispy skin that is both fragrant and tasty, making it a star attraction on the menu.
