I tried Cocoichi's shrimp 'THE shrimp curry'

CoCo Ichibanya has released ` `THE Shrimp Curry, '' which is topped with red shrimp in a sauce that incorporates the rich flavor of lobster. It is said that the fresh cream gives it a mellow and rich taste, and the tomatoes add a slight sourness, creating a taste that even people who are not good at spicy taste can enjoy, so I tried eating it to see what it tastes like. .

Cocoichi's first-ever curry sauce using shrimp 'THE Shrimp Curry' packed with the delicious flavor of lobster will be sold in limited quantities from October 16th.

Arrived at CoCo Ichibanya.

I ordered 'THE Shrimp Curry' using a touch panel terminal.

'THE Shrimp Curry' has arrived.

There are about 5 shrimp in it.

The curry roux is steeped in shrimp flavor with a very slight saltiness that is too weak to be described as 'salty'. The rich umami that seems to have been boiled down to its original flavor comes flooding out the moment you bite into the red shrimp topping. The presence of aroma is superior to curry, but the taste is all about shrimp. I felt that the smell peculiar to seafood was well erased by the curry. The spiciness was certainly weak, but it wasn't sweet either, and the taste always had a tingling sensation, so it may not be suitable for people who are really sensitive to spiciness.

The price of 'THE Shrimp Curry' is 1050 yen including tax, and it is sold at CoCo Ichibanya stores nationwide except for some stores. It will end as soon as it runs out.
