About Asakusa Gibier Curry
Operated by Sakurada Co., Ltd. and led by chef Katsuhiko Sakurada, who has 53 years of cooking experience, Asakusa Gibier Curry brings a special dish born from a 34-year connection with Nepal. The curry features carefully simmered wild boar and deer meat, infused with a rich broth and a blend of Nepalese spices crafted by Pandit Niranjam from Nepal. The dish is finished with grilled boar and a raw egg, combining the deep flavors of wild game, aromatic spices, and the smoothness of the egg.
The rice served is specially selected to complement the curry’s rich taste. This dish reflects the chef’s life journey, including his travels to Nepal and his long-standing passion for gibier (wild game) cuisine.
