Halal Japanese Curry House CoCoICHIBANYA’s Second Restaurant Open in Shinjuku!
The largest curry house in the world, CoCoICHIBANYA, is known as Japan’s leading curry chain store with a familiar taste for Japanese.
In Autumn last year, they opened their very first halal curry house in Akihabara and became a hot topic both in Japan and abroad.
Following the success in Akihabara, they now open the second restaurant in Shinjuku on August 24th (Friday).
Prime Location in Shinjuku, Kabukicho!
Talking about Shinjuku, this downtown area is known as its department store and electronic store.
Kabukicho area in Shinjuku known as restaurants lining up in the narrow streets is always crowded with tourists regardless of season.
CoCoICHIBANYA settled its restaurant in the center of that popular Kabukicho area, makes it convenient for tourists to stop by.
The restaurant is on the 1F of the building.
CoCoICHIBANYA has a strong image of yellow signboard, but halal restaurant one is in the green signboard.
As there is common CoCoICHIBANYA in yellow nearby, so please be careful.
Muslim Friendly and Family Friendly Restaurant
Same to Akihabara restaurant, Shinjuku one also obtained a halal certificate.
It has spacious space and table seats, a nice atmosphere for those who come together with kids or those who come in groups.
This is a family-friendly restaurant as they provide a kids menu.
The Most Recommended Menu is Karaage Curry and Chicken Katsu Curry
Japanese-style curry has a special characteristic, those are “thick roux” and “chewy rice”, quite different from watery Indian curry. Please have it a try!
The addicting thickly cut juicy meat of ”Karaage (deep-fried chicken) Curry (840 yen (excl. tax)” and “Chicken Katsu Curry (950 yen (excl.tax)” is the popular one.
If you confuse which one to have, these two are the most recommended.
Moreover, you can choose the level of spiciness, from level 1 to level 10.
The recommended one is level 2, of course for those who have confidence in spiciness, you can challenge spicier level.
Besides of spiciness level, in CoCoICHIBANYA you can choose the volume of rice and toppings.
For those who want to enjoy the dish at home or your staying hotel, you can take away “Chicken Box (1000 yen (excl. tax)).
A luxurious combination of french fries, karaage (Japanese fried chicken), chicken breast cutlet is so impressive.
