Japanese Beef Curry, aka Comfort Food, at The Peninsula Tokyo

Taste the Difference – Japanese Beef Curry at a Five Star Hotel.

Japanese beef curry was originally inspired from the British varieties of curry as brought and influenced by the Europeans to Japan particularly with their love of meats. Today, beef curry is a classic home cooked comfort dish that can even be found in premier five-star hotels.

 

Different Varieties of Japanese Curry

Japanese curry has grown so popular over the years that it is incorporated into more than just curry over rice.

The different varieties of Japanese curry include katsu curry (curry sauce poured over fried pork), curry pan (curry inside a bread bun), curry udon, soup curry, and dry curry rice.

Moreover, every regional through the whole country has their variations of the curry’s spice blend and the addition of beef, pork, chicken, or even seafood.
 

Beef Curry at The Peninsula Tokyo

The beef curry at The Peninsula Tokyo combines the cultures and flavors of both Japanese curry and European curry. It is as though you are tasting the evolution of the dish’s history. It has the depth of a red wine beef stew blended with the complex spices and slight sweetness of the Japanese curry.

The Peninsula Tokyo’s beef curry is served in both The Lobby for guests and visitors and also as Room Service for hotel guests. Because of its Western influence, the dish is eaten with a spoon. And, because it is a Japanese comfort dish, the curry is enjoyed with rice and pickled vegetables.

 

Insider Tip: If you are staying at the hotel, first head over to the nearby Shake Shack Yurakucho to get a bottle of their Shack Red. Then order the beef curry as room service to feast in your room’s dining table. It is the perfect pairing with The Peninsula Tokyo’s beef curry.
