CoCo Ichibanya JR Tennojieki-kitaguchi — Restaurant in Osaka

Decent chain curry restaurant. Pretty big. It was empty at the time the pictures were taken. They had two bookshelves manga that you can read while waiting and eating. You can request an English menu if you need one. The dish I ordered was pork cutlet with spinach and mushroom in the curry. They will ask you spicy level and how many grams of rice. I upped the spice level x 2 - which was okay, so not numbing for the spicy lovers. Sticked with the base rice because you want to save room for other things while walking around. They give you a pitcher of iced water and a small container of pickled vegetables. The curry was not overly salty. Overall, it was decent and cheap...

During my visit in Japan, I was looking for somewhere to eat and happened to notice that there was a curry place by the hotel I was staying at. They were very courteous to the fact that we had a hard time with the menu and gave us an English menu. I got the cheese curry with a spiciness level of 6. It was I think the best curry I've ever tasted and it was actually spicy unlike the other curry places. I really enjoyed the food here so much that i'm going to make it my goal to save up to come back to Japan to eat here once...

CoCo is always a wonderful experience. Tailor made curries to whatever you want at any given time.

Adding on some soft boiled eggs, hard boiled eggs, stewed chicken and potato salad is lovely.

Not at all pretentious either, young and old eat with the same big spoons here.

Music is always great too, old time swing and...
