個人的にはいままで食べてきたキーマカレーの中で一番美味しかったです。 変な味付けがない、お肉の旨みとスパイスのシンプルさ。 最高です! 同行者が頼んだあいがけのキーマじゃない方はなかなかに辛かったです。 窪川に来たらまた行きたいと思います!

窪川のカレーの名店 金土日しかカレーの提供はなしなので注意 エスニックっぽい感じであいがけがおすすめ

スパイス好きにはたまらない四万十町随一の曜日限定カレー屋さん。 母の営んで来た喫茶店で、木、金、土、日限定で二代目が生スパイスをふんだんに使ったパンチの効いたスパイスカレーを提供してくれます。 一口食べるとお口にクミンやカルダモンの香りがふわっと広がり、カレーは飲み物のごとく飲んでしまうほどのおいしさです。 しかも安い!素材にこだわり、時間をかけて丁寧に調理した手作りカレーなのにたったの1000円!食後のコーヒーたったの200円!ビールたったの400円! 毎日でも通いたい最高のカレー屋さんが近所にできてうれしくて舞い上がりそう。 お店は40年以上続く老舗喫茶店で、レトロな雰囲気も落ち着いていい感じです。 車もお店の横に停められるので心配ありません。 末永く美味しいカレーをよろしくお願いいたします。 カレーの提供日やメニューは、Instagramの、sea_gull1979 に詳しく書かれています。

日曜日の朝、次の予定までの時間つぶしもあってモーニングを食べに行きました。 入ると地元の方が数人楽しそうにお喋りしていました。かといって疎外感は全く感じず、のんびりと本を読んだりモーニングを食べたりすることができました。 モーニングは食パン、サラダ、スープ、バナナ、ゆで卵、コーヒーとシンプルですがとても美味しかったです。550円というリーズナブルな値段で読書と食事を楽しめたのでとても良かったです。

カレーが美味しい店です。お店の雰囲気も良く、お昼時は絶えずお客さんが来店されてる感じでした。限定食ナポリタンも非常に気になるので、次回はそちらを食しに伺います。
