It is famous as the restaurant that first created Kanazawa curry. Kanazawa curry is a curry rice dish that features a thick curry roux and toppings of cabbage and pork cutlet. It is placed in a steel dish, with the curry roux and topping almost covering the rice.<\/p>\n\n<p>When you go to a Champion Curry restaurant, you&#8217;ll find a variety of menus with different toppings. Toppings such as sausages and fried shrimp are also popular. However, the most popular menu item is the &#8220;L Katsu Curry&#8221; topped with pork cutlet. For those trying Kanazawa curry for the first time, we recommend starting with this &#8220;L Katsu Curry&#8221;. It is soul food loved by the people of Kanazawa. Be sure to give it a try.<\/p>\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u25b6 Information<\/h6>\n<div class=\"guidance_table\">\n<table style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse;\" border=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Official website<\/th>\n<td><a class=\"e_link\" href=\"https:\/\/chancurry.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/chancurry.com\/<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u25b6 Map<\/h6>\n\n<div class=\"well2\">\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d25636.761275160658!2d136.6305733957031!3d36.56387322452748!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x5ff834a1a0cace75%3A0xa21445658a659864!2z44OB44Oj44Oz44OU44Kq44Oz44Kr44Os44O8IOeOiemJvuW6lw!5e0!3m2!1sja!2sjp!4v1717242926131!5m2!1sja!2sjp\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-8463529882006133\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><!-- Horizontal --><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8463529882006133\" data-ad-slot=\"1641797304\" data-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins><script>(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kanazawa is a tourist city where historic buildings and streets still exist.
