Bunga: Japanese Curry Speciality Restaurant Shirayama Bunga near the Hachiman shrine in Saga city offers a variety of sumptuous curries. I recommend the weekday lunch special which gives you a choice of two curries from the following eight varieties. Beef, Shrimp, Scallop, Chicken, Mushroom, Fruit, Spicy Java, Thai curry, Spicy pork, Bean, Hayashi rice (hashed beef with rice). I ordered the spicy Java and Fruit curries. This type of curry was developed in Japan from curry introduced by the British. The curry is poured over the rice and eaten. The rice has a faint, delightful aroma of butter. This may not look like much rice but never fear. A separate container of rice is brought to your table and you can help yourself. And, if that’s not enough, just ask for more, at no extra charge. With just one bite, you will realize that a great deal of time and effort has been put into creating these curries. Each variety has its own unique taste, depending on the ingredients used. So, you can enjoy the taste of a variety of curries. The fruit curry is made with a selection of fruit. This unusual curry is mild, looks charming and tastes delightful. Today, curry rice is a staple dish in Japanese homes. However, when it was first introduced to Japan from the United Kingdom, it was a luxury dish which could only be tasted in a handful of restaurants. Shirayama Bunga curry is a high class curry and when you eat it you can imagine the excitement that people in the past felt when tasting curry for the first time.
