At the beef bowl chain restaurant

Arrived at Sukiya.

The commercial featured actor

Fumiya Takahashi as the character, and a poster with the catchphrase 'Today is another lovely day.' was hanging on the wall.

Ordering is done via a touch panel. In addition to the standard 'Charcoal Grilled Tender Chicken Curry,' there are also derivative menu items such as 'Cheese Tender Chicken Curry,' 'Spinach Tender Chicken Curry,' and 'Ontama Spinach Tender Chicken Curry.' This time, I ordered the standard 'Charcoal Grilled Tender Chicken Curry' in a regular size, which seems to simply convey the flavor of charcoal grilled chicken.

The charcoal grilled tender chicken curry was brought to us about three minutes after we ordered.

A large charcoal grilled chicken sits on top of curry rice.

The chicken is so tender that you can easily insert a spoon into it.

The curry is quite mild, with the sweetness of fruits and vegetables blending in, and pairs perfectly with the fragrant charcoal-grilled chicken.

It comes with a special spicy sauce, so you can adjust the spiciness to your liking.

The spicy sauce is similar to

a thick sauce , and is different from cayenne pepper, so it's better to mix it with curry sauce little by little to balance the flavors.

The chicken meat came off the bone easily, so I was able to eat almost everything. Considering the price, this chicken curry is quite filling.

A regular serving of 'Charcoal Grilled Tender Chicken Curry' is sold for 850 yen including tax.
