Senbikiya Sohonten Mango Curry and Fusetsu Nakamura's calligraphy
Issa, a correspondent who loves curry. There are many delicious curry shops in Chuo-ku, but today we will introduce the popular menu "Mango Curry" at Senbikiya Sohonten in Nihonbashi Muromachi Mitsui Tower, a classic curry in Nihonbashi.
It is often featured in the media, so I think many people have eaten it.
It is a slightly sweet curry with authentic Western-style curry added with mango. When you hear mango curry, you may be wondering if it's really delicious, but the exquisite balance between sweetness and spiciness is a taste that sticks to it.
You can easily eat it at Cafe Difesta on the 1st floor of Mitsui Tower, so it is perfect for light lunch.
By the way, do you know that a large old flat with the word "Senbikiya Sohonke" is hung on the wall on the Senbikiya main store on the first floor?
When you look at the unique characters that are different from the slave book body, the author is written as "non-fold book".
It is a calligraphy of Fusetsu Nakamura, a calligrapher and Western painter from Meiji to Showa.
