Now you can have a romantic dinner and chocolate all wrapped up in one package in Japan!
No matter where in the world you celebrate Valentine’s Day, the holiday is almost synonymous with one thing: chocolate.
Whether a woman in Japan buying giri-choco for every guy you know, or a resident of another country receiving a bouquet of roses and box of chocolates from your partner, there simply must be chocolate!
Now, Japan's favorite store for crazy stuff, Village Vanguard, has just the chocolatey goodness you need, plus a romantic dinner rolled into one, with 'Chocolate Curry'.
This dish brings together “curry and chocolate’s miracle harmony” in a boil-able pouch, with the contents poured over a plate of steaming hot rice after cooking.
It makes for a quick and easy dinner with minimal cleanup, so you can spend more time with your sweetheart.
As for taste, well, it seems like this may give you the feeling you’re having dessert for dinner.
The main ingredient for this is chocolate, after all, and is followed by banana puree and… sauteed onions?
Other ingredients include sugar, chutney, onion extract, curry powder, and other spices.
With such a mix of sweet and savory flavors, the taste of the curry is likely to be something quite complex.
Perhaps it’s just crazy enough to work!
The curry can be ordered from Village Vanguard’s online store for 540 yen (US$4.70).
