“Karēpan” combines two staples: curry and bread. Japanese-style curry retains that antique (some may say inauthentic) curry-powder taste, and has become a comfort food across the country; it’s a popular school lunch menu item and a weekly tradition for the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force. Traditionally, karēpan is deep-fried and covered in panko breadcrumbs for extra crunch, and is therefore not the healthiest of snacks out there. But to satiate a stomach yearning for grease, dough and curry, there’s nothing quite like it. From originators to usurpers and upstarts, Tokyo’s karēpan scene is varied. Click on the link in our bio for a roundup of some of the capital’s famous karēpan purveyors to kick off your epicurean adventure. 📸 Russell Thomas
