CoCo Ichibanya's `` '' Curry (Nanashi Curry) '' where a huge chunk of meat fills the plate has been conquered at all levels Review

At the curry chain

CoCo Ichibanya , `` '' Curry (Nanashi Curry) '' has appeared since April 6, 2023 (Thursday). A huge pork shoulder loin is placed on top of the rice, and the meat chunk is finished with a soy sauce- based sauce with a garlic flavor and a sweet taste of grated onions. Furthermore, it is possible to select the amount of meat in three stages from 'meat lump LEVEL 1' to 'meat lump LEVEL 3', so I actually tried to conquer all levels.

Arrived at Curry House CoCo Ichibanya.

Nanashi Curry is available at a limited number of stores. You can check the stores that offer it on

the official website , and you can also find a banner that says 'meat chunk curry'.

Nanashi curry is also appealing on the tabletop menu. The standard amount of rice is 300g, and the standard spiciness is medium. Not only can you adjust the amount and spiciness of the rice, but you can also adjust the amount of meat to 3 levels: 'meat lump LEVEL1', 'meat lump LEVEL2' (approximately 1.5 times that of LEVEL1), and 'meat lump LEVEL3' (approximately twice that of LEVEL1). You can choose from This time, the rice is standard, the spiciness is medium spicy, and I ordered all 'meat lump LEVEL 1' to 'meat lump LEVEL 3'.

Nanashi curry arrived in about 15 minutes from the order. Lump meat LEVEL 1 in the back, Lump meat LEVEL 2 in the front left, Lump meat LEVEL 3 in the front right.

Comparing meat lump LEVEL 1 (left) and meat lump LEVEL 3 (right) looks like this. Meat lump LEVEL 3 is so piled up that the rice below cannot be seen.

Meat lump LEVEL2 looks like this. The size of each piece of meat seems to vary depending on the dish, and this time the meat from LEVEL2 was the largest.

In addition to onions and basil, a large amount of garlic powder is put on the meat lump.

When Nanashi Curry arrived at my table, I thought, 'Isn't it necessary to use a knife and fork?'

First of all, when you eat only the meat chunk, the meat has a very crumbly texture, and when you bite it, it loosens quickly, giving the impression that it is very soft and easy to eat. The garlic powder put on top gives you a fairly strong garlic flavor and a faint sweetness of onions. However, the part where a lot of garlic powder was applied felt salty.

When I eat curry sauce, the taste is general pork curry. Anyway, the amount of meat is large, and it feels like eating 'meat and curry roux' instead of 'rice and curry roux'. When eating curry with meat, you need to think, 'I want to leave some meat for the last bite, so I'll eat it little by little.' I thoroughly enjoyed each piece of meat.

Nanashi Curry is limited to about 300 Curry House CoCo Ichibanya stores nationwide, and will be sold for a limited time from April 6, 2023 (Thursday). 1501 yen including tax, meat lump LEVEL 2 is 1951 yen including tax, meat lump LEVEL 3 is 2371 yen including tax.
