What you need to know:
- Shokudo Kilimani is located behind the Astrol Petrol Station on Lenana Road. There is a second location at the Craft Centre in Gigiri. The setting is more Tokyo than Kyoto, which is to say, modern.
- While Indian curries are complex and burst with flavour, Japanese curry is understated.
When you think about Japanese food, it’s usually sushi or ramen, not curry. However, the Japanese have a classification for food with Western features called Yoshoku. Many popular dishes in Japan are Western-influenced, for example, omu-rice (fried rice with a soft egg omelet), tonkatsu, and Japanese curry. You must have seen these foods in various anime.
You can find these and other Japanese favourites at Shokudo. Shokudo Kilimani is located behind the Astrol Petrol Station on Lenana Road. There is a second location at the Craft Centre in Gigiri. The setting is more Tokyo than Kyoto, which is to say, modern.
