Cocos Japan Unveils a Refreshing New Dish

Cocos Japan, a family restaurant chain based in Tokyo, is inviting guests to savor their latest culinary offering, the Cold Singaporean Style Laksa. This exciting dish is part of their August Gourmet Menu, running from July 31st, and is perfect for the warm summer days ahead.

The Star of the Menu: Cold Singaporean Style Laksa

This dish beautifully melds the rich flavor of coconut milk with the umami of seafood, creating a delightful balance of sweet and spicy flavors. Unlike traditional hot versions, this cold take on laksa features tender steam chicken and juicy shrimp, making it a refreshing choice for the summertime.

Each bowl showcases chewy noodles topped with succulent steam chicken and delectable shrimp. For an added crunch, fried onions and crisp red daikon are sprinkled generously across the dish. As a finishing touch, a separate portion of chili sauce brings the perfect heat, infused with the zesty aroma of lemongrass and the distinct punch of garlic, making every bite captivatingly memorable. Guests can also choose to enhance their dish with a side of cilantro for an additional 200 yen (tax included).

More Than Just a Main Dish

Cocos is also offering a complete meal package that includes this cold laksa with a drink bar, soup bar, and a delightful dessert. After enjoying the spiciness of the laksa, diners can treat themselves to a refreshing Cassis Sorbet and Fruit Yogurt Mini Parfait, creating a perfect balance to the culinary experience.

A Taste of Southeast Asia

Laksa is a beloved noodle dish in Southeast Asia, particularly in Singapore, recognized for its potent spices. Cocos has taken this traditional meal and given it a unique twist that is perfect for the season. The mild coconut milk forms the base of a broth that bursts with seafood flavor and fragrant spices, stimulating appetites even in the hottest weather. Additional garnishes of diced tomatoes, crunchy fried onions, crisp red daikon, and cilantro not only enhance the flavor profile but also add a delightful textural contrast.

The optional chili sauce elevates the dish further, introducing a refreshing component with its lemongrass essence, garlic kick, and spicy notes.

Pricing and Availability

For a price of 1,190 yen (tax included 1,309 yen), customers can enjoy the Cold Singaporean Style Laksa, with an enhanced meal option priced at 1,780 yen (tax included 1,958 yen), which includes the laksa, a mini parfait dessert, and access to the drink and soup bars.

This special menu is set to be available at 504 Cocos locations across the country (as of July 23), so be sure to visit your nearest restaurant before the seasonal offering concludes in late August.
