About this spot
This Dotonbori staple serves up Ippudo's signature spicy curry rice with a rich, tomato-heavy broth that coats the noodles perfectly. Locals often order the 'Sakana Curry' to pair the savory sauce with crispy fried fish for a hearty meal.
💡 Tips before you go
- Ask for extra pickled ginger (benishoga) to cut through the intense spice of the curry.
- Order the side dish of grilled eggplant or pork belly to balance the heavy sauce.
- Skip the bread bowl if you prefer to use your rice scoop for dipping.
