Japanese ofen eat curries and make them at homes. There are many restaurant of curries in Japan. 'Curry house Coco-ichiban-ya' is famous as franchise chain of curry restaurants. If you go to them, you can choose the degree of hot flavor and the volume of rice and you can choose curry which you want to eat among curry more than 30 kinds. 'Shinjyuku Nakamura-ya' had been a famous as the Indian curry restaurant for a long time. You can eat thease as much as you like at this restaurant. - 6 types curries - rice and nan breads - salads - soups - drinks We use these pastes when we make curry dish at homes. This curry powder is a famous product of 'S&B-Curry'. S&B 赤缶カレー粉400g These are curry pastes of 'House food'. ハウス食品 ジャワカレー220g各種 ハウス ザ・カリー140g(カレールー)各種 We don't need to make the Curry's spice by ourselves when we get them. In addition, we can buy retort pouch food of curries at the stores. Japanese company 'House food' makes many types curry pastes and retort foods of curry. After put retort foods of curry into water,we wait for a few minutes and we can eat curry. I found the curry of vegetarian on the net! ベジタリアンのためのカレー In Japan,we eat many types's curries. - Curry with rice or nan breads - Curry udon - Curry nanban ( soba ) etc If you want to eat Curry Udon in Japan, I recommend the restaurant 'Sugamo Konaya'. The menus are here. By the way,How to make Curry udon? It is very easy! This recipe is for 5 people. 1.put water(500cc), Japanese soba soup 'soba-tusyu'(600cc), chicken(150g) into a panstew and stew for a few minutes 2.put curry powders(240g) into a pan - This is base of Curry soup. 3.stew long green onions or onions and put into a pan of Curry soup 4.After boiling Udon and then put Curry soup into Udon There is a food amusement park 'Yokohama - Curry museum' in Yokohama. I found a interesting web site about curry. The web site is here. Although I am a Japanese, I prefer Indian curry to Japanese curry.

Thanks Reona
really interesting, as you know i love food and cooking..
curries are the most popular food in the U.K. ,almost every town no matter how small has an Indian restaurant or takeaway. Often they will deliver freshly cooked Curry to your house, I often have a curry delivered. A type of curry called a Balti is very popular in England

Even traditional fish and chip shops sell pots of curry sauce to pour over your chips.
Supermarkets sell complete Indian meals with all trimmings to be taken home and microwaved or warmed in the oven

In singapore, we have S&B curry & House brand too. Probably most of the famous brands in japan are available here too. I like cooking japanese curry sometimes. ^.^ Using the pre-mix of course. ":P

Indian curry & japanese curry have their own distinctive points. Can't compare them.

Maybe sometimes, when your stomach is not so good and you crave for curry. We can opt for japanese curry. hehe
