The Curry Event in the Tokyo/Kanda area is currently underway! Tokyo boasts numerous curry restaurants, and Kanda is renowned as the holy land of curry in Japan, hosting over 400 curry restaurants within its boundaries. Presently, the “Curry Eating Stamp Rally” is taking place, offering participants the opportunity to earn the esteemed title of “Curry Meister.” On November 4 and 5, the highly anticipated “Kanda Curry Grand Prix” will be held to determine the champion curry restaurant!

Let’s participate in the “Curry Stamp Rally!”

Every year from August to December, the “Curry Stamp Rally” attracts curry enthusiasts to explore the diverse curry offerings in Kanda. Completing the designated rally course grants you the coveted title of “Kanda Curry Meister”! This year, 142 restaurants are participating, with each course comprising 30 to 31 restaurants. If you prefer the freedom to visit your favorite restaurants, you can become a Curry Meister by collecting stamps from 35 different restaurants. Achieving Curry Meister status not only earns you the honorable title but also grants you complimentary drinks and other benefits at curry restaurants! Even if you don’t attain the Meister status, you will receive a cute “Buddy Card” as the “Kanda Curry Buddy Award” after visiting 10 restaurants, so start collecting stamps now!

I, Marei, the editor-in-chief, had the pleasure of becoming a Curry Meister in the past (you can watch our video for reference). The experience was so enjoyable that I’ve decided to participate in the stamp rally again this year! My first stop was Curry Restaurant Bambi in Jimbocho.

Bambi specializes in Pork Curry, featuring slow-simmered pork belly that is incredibly tender! The potatoes are boiled and then deep-fried to enhance their natural flavor. The menu also offers a variety of other dishes, including chicken curry and Japanese curry with pork cutlets, making it a challenge to choose just one!

I was pleasantly surprised by the deep and unexpectedly spicy flavor of the curry sauce! When I poured coconut milk onto the curry, it transformed the taste, resembling a curry from Southeast Asia. What a brilliant idea – you can savor two different curry flavors simultaneously!

Why not join the stamp rally in Tokyo’s Kanda area and indulge in a spicy autumn day?
