2. Pork Shoulder Roast Spiced Curry: Tender Japanese pork shoulder, cooked with a signature blend of spices, delivers an aromatic sensation that will captivate curry lovers.

3. Grilled Kesenuma Swordfish with Tropical Coconut Curry: Ideal for the summer months, this dish combines the essence of seafood with aromatic flavors from coconut milk, peanuts, and lemongrass.

Complementing the curry lineup are refreshing side dishes such as chilled Vichyssoise made from domestic potatoes, and a colorful homemade Terrine featuring eel from Kagoshima and seasonal vegetables. To further enrich the experience, diners can delight in the Cocoa-Pineapple drink, perfect for soothing the palate after a spicy meal.
