The Concept
This culinary festival builds on the previous year's successful breakfast event, bringing the concept of a refreshing morning meal to life. Each of the 28 WHG Hotels, which include the Washington Hotel and Hotel Gracery, will offer 1 to 3 unique curry options daily, with a focus on original recipes developed specifically for this occasion.
Notable Indian curry expert Kariko has been invited to sample the creations and share her impressions, allowing guests to experience expert commentary on the depth of flavor and how well these dishes pair with local ingredients. A dedicated webpage will provide insights into each dish, enhancing the overall experience for visitors.
Highlights of the Menu
Among the standout offerings, Kariko has praised the "Spicy Coconut Chicken Curry" from Hotel Gracery Tamachi, crafted with coconut milk and clam extract. This green curry encapsulates the umami of both chicken and shellfish, making for a deliciously addictive dish.
At the Iwaki Washington Hotel, the "Shichihama Seafood Keema Curry – Special Spice Edition" utilizes fresh seafood sourced directly from local markets, skillfully utilizing lesser-known cuts to enhance the dish’s rich flavor without any fishy aftertaste.
Other exciting options include regional favorites like the "Local Vegetable and Sapporo-Style Soup Curry" from Hotel Gracery Sapporo and the "Hiroshima Spinach Spiced Keema Curry" from Hiroshima Washington Hotel, underscoring WHG's commitment to using local ingredients to craft memorable dishes.
