🍜 Columbia8 Kitahama Main Store

In 2008, Mr. Ogeemeal (オギミ〜ル☆), who was "only thinking about curry," opened a specialty spice curry shop. The original curry, cleverly made with a variety of spices that were quite rare at the time, quickly gained popularity as the media rushed to report on it. Today, it has become an important presence in the Osaka food scene, sparking a trend for spice curry. The classic "meat sauce curry" showcases a complex blend of various spices, with a distinct and strong aroma and flavor that presents a unique presence. It is uniquely enjoyed with chili peppers served on the side. The grapefruit juice that accompanies the meal also plays an important role in enhancing the overall flavor. The "vegetable curry," made from 100% vegetables, is also highly recommended. If you're unsure about what to order, you might consider the "mixed curry," which includes minced meat curry, vegetable curry, and a boiled egg. The shop has only 9 counter seats, and there are queues forming before it opens at 11 AM, with no empty seats until closing time. It's advisable to allow extra time and arrive early for your meal.

Since its opening in 2008, it has been a leading establishment in the Osaka spice curry scene. It has been selected for the Michelin Guide for four consecutive years. First-time customers can choose from three options: "Meat Sauce Curry," "Vegetable Curry," and "Mixed Curry."
