On the other hand, blue and purple colors decrease appetite. Come to think of it, there are no "blue chochin" or "purple brick" signs in izakaya (Japanese style pubs). They must be "aka-chochin" (red lanterns).
Last year, an event called "Science Kitchen - Arienai Rika no Ryori" was held at Nico Nico Honsha in Harajuku, introducing a variety of experimental dishes. Among them, the most popular (?) was the "blue curry. The most popular (?) dish was "blue curry. The purpose of the event was to verify whether it is true that the color blue reduces appetite, but it was a big hit because people did not feel like eating it.
The blue curry is now sold at Cafe TEAROOM2525 on the second floor of Nico Nico Honsha as "Appetite-Depleting Blue Curry," and is available to anyone.
The base of "Appetite-Decreasing Blue Curry" is white curry. It is dyed a brilliant peacock blue using petroleum-based coloring. The disastrous and poisonous blue color is nothing short of spectacular.
When you try it, it tastes like an ordinary sweet white curry. If you eat it with your eyes closed, it is very tasty. But be careful, it will turn your lips blue!
A normal serving is 700 yen, and you can get a large serving for an additional 300 yen. How is it possible to have a "large serving" of curry when the purpose of the dish is to "reduce appetite"?
TEAROOM2525 also offers "Gekimasu Soup" for 500 yen and "Gekimasu Soup [Extreme]" for 3,000 yen. Paying 3,000 yen to eat something that tastes bad is chic. It's chic. It's very Edokko, isn't it? For those who have the time and money to spare, why don't you come and have a chat with us?
