◆ Custom spiciness and rice
First, choose your favorite soup curry from the menu.Next, select the spiciness from level 0 to ∞ (infinity). Levels 0 to 1 are sweet and can be eaten by children. 2-3 is medium spicy, 4-5 is dry. For those who are confident in the spiciness, level 6 or above, choose according to your physical condition and taste. It may be safe to talk to the clerk about how painful it is.
And finally, choose the type of rice. White rice or brown rice, small, medium and large sizes are available.
There are also toppings such as cheese, vegetables, and meat, so add them as you like.
This time I ordered "Seasonal Vegetable Chicken Soup Curry" (1,500 yen). The ingredients are eggplant, pumpkin, okra, broccoli, carrots, potatoes, chicken, and boiled eggs. In addition to this, you can choose 2 items from seasonal vegetables. I made oyster mushrooms from Mie prefecture and lotus roots from Ibaraki prefecture. And the spiciness is at the dry level "5" at home.
The hot soup curry has arrived. A smooth yet rich soup. You can feel the deep umami in the intricately intertwined spices. I can't stop when I start drinking!
A lotus root that is just like the eggplant. Large but soft and sweet carrots, and hot potatoes. Crispy mushrooms and broccoli with a savory flavor. The vegetables are delicious anyway!
And what was sunk at the bottom of the bowl was a whole chicken leg!
It's soft and fluffy, and you can loosen it with a spoon. The juicy umami goes great with the spicy soup! I'm happy ...!
◆ Seasonal soup curry
In addition to the regular menu, seasonal soup curry is also available. At the time of writing the article, "Soft beef tendon hamburger mushroom demitama soup curry" (1,600 yen) was on sale as "autumn soup curry".A large hamburger steak is the main character, and vegetables such as garlic toast, fried egg, lotus root, mushrooms, tomatoes, eggplants, and sweet potatoes are added.
The hamburger is soft and juicy and can be loosened in your mouth. The fried egg is a slightly firm medium rare. Not only the crunchy vegetables, but also the curry soup-stained garlic toast is insanely delicious!
Additive-free homemade soup curry made from Hokkaido ingredients, that is, the best. You can customize the spiciness and toppings as you like, and there are seasonal menus and curry limited to Saturdays and Sundays, so you won't get bored no matter how many times you go. If you like soup curry or spicy food, why not go to Tsunashima?
