Kokoperi Curry... it's difficult to summarize the review of this restaurant... how should I put it? (Confused? Like a maze?) Maybe it's best to do thorough research before going to this place? Or maybe it's better to just go in without any expectations? Well, either way, once you step into this restaurant, you'll be drawn into the world of the owner (laughs). This time, I arrived at the front of the restaurant on Friday at 12:50. The restaurant is located on the 2nd floor of a mixed-use building, and you have to climb a narrow staircase to get there. When you open the door... huh!? No other customers? The interior of the restaurant, with only counter seats, seems like it used to be a bar that was renovated. Healing programs are playing on a large TV with low volume in the background. The owner has a strong and unique aura... (laughs) The male owner runs the place alone, and his distinctive atmosphere is intriguing, almost dangerously so (laughs). The owner asked, "Is this your first visit?" and when I answered, "Yes, it is my first time (blush)," he handed me a tablet... and I was forced to watch a TV feature about the restaurant that was aired before (laughs). After watching the tablet, it was time to order a drink... this time, I ordered a lassi. When asked, "Don't you want the 'famous dog'?"... I replied, "Just the regular is fine..." (laughs) Then, I was handed a smartphone and forced to watch the owner's preferences again (laughs). After watching that, I could finally order the curry. It's quite a hassle, but you can sense the deep love for curry when you enter this place. To get to this point, there must have been a lot of internal struggles... or maybe, to establish such a deep theory about curry, you have to go through a lot of trouble (laughs). When I ordered, I chose the "3 kinds of curry with 3 toppings for 2000 yen." The interior of the restaurant seems to have a no-photo policy for the menu, so I refrained from taking pictures. However, taking pictures of the served curry was allowed. The curry was served in about 15 minutes. The first impression... the presentation is beautiful, and the blue plate is nice. Moreover, there were thinly sliced vegetables placed around the edge of the plate... carrots, radishes, etc... a lot of effort was put into this... it's clear that the owner's philosophy of "curry is art" is true. The first bite of the curry... wow... this is amazing... an overwhelming umami flavor hits you! It's a light type of curry with a complex balance of spiciness, acidity, and sweetness... all blended together perfectly... it's really delicious! The lassi after the meal has a Calpis-like flavor... it goes well after eating curry. So, let me summarize the overall impression of Spice Curry below: 1. High-quality spice curry with no additives or Chinese ingredients... can such umami be achieved without chemical seasonings? I wonder... for a normal Japanese person living a regular life, it's quite difficult nowadays to avoid additives or Chinese ingredients... honestly, eating organic curry just once at Kokoperi Curry may not make much of a difference... but the taste of this one meal... it's truly delicious! I'm glad I came here to eat this curry! 2. The owner's passion is pushed onto you to an extreme extent (laughs)... it's rare to see a restaurant where the owner's passion is so clearly manifested... the owner has truly brought his vision to life... he's doing exactly what he wants... such unique and talented restaurants become famous hotspots... they're doing a really meticulous and great job. The owner of this place... seems to be living a life that others would envy (laughs).

I was in the Tenma area for work and the restaurant I had been planning to visit was unexpectedly closed. So, I decided to try this place that had caught my attention before. The lunch curry set with a drink was over 2,000 yen, but the quality was good. The owner has a unique style, and the experience can be a bit long. I ordered a simple three-curry plate, and it was delicious. The quality of the ingredients, the harmony of spices, and the depth of flavor from the Japanese-style dashi were all excellent. The owner's commitment to using no additives and avoiding Chinese ingredients was evident. Overall, it was very tasty. The long curry descriptions before ordering reminded me of the world of "Oishinbo," which I enjoyed. I'll make sure to remember the part about the famous dog for my next visit!

I visited just before the last order time of 14:50 on Tuesday afternoon. As written in the reviews, I listened to the unique owner's love for curry while eating. Some people may find it not to their taste, but I was totally fine with it. I had a set with 3 types of curry and 3 toppings, including honey keema, with a drink included, for a total of 2300 yen including tax. At first, I thought it was a bit expensive, but I could tell that they are very particular about the ingredients, so I felt the cost performance was reasonable and enjoyed the delicious meal.

Kokoperi Curry. This curry restaurant operates on a one drink per person policy during dinner time. Additionally, there is a set charge of 1000 yen excluding tax for appetizers, dessert, and Sri Lankan tea, which are provided regardless. The menu lacks clear explanations, leading to confusion during payment. The appetizer is a simple snack, while dessert consists of mini-sized Häagen-Dazs ice cream and cake made by the owner's mother. I thought these were complimentary due to the extra charge during dinner time. It is essential for restaurants to clearly display all important information and obtain consent beforehand. The breakdown of charges is as follows: Curry Assortment - 2200 yen (excluding tax), One Drink - 700 yen (excluding tax), Appetizer + Dessert + Tea - 1000 yen (excluding tax). The total amount comes to 3900 yen, with an additional 10% consumption tax, resulting in a minimum payment of 4290 yen. Lunch prices are inclusive of tax, while dinner prices are exclusive of tax. Lunch includes a free drink, but dinner includes a mandatory paid drink and appetizer. As a result, the total bill for two people amounted to approximately 9000 yen, which was quite surprising. The menu may state the information, but the small and difficult-to-read font size makes it challenging. It is important to be cautious and attentive during payment to avoid any surprises. The owner may emphasize luxury, but in the current context, the word "luxury" is often associated with "high-end," whereas its original Latin meaning refers to "excessive extravagance." Knowing this, the exaggerated claims and misleading statements should be taken with caution. A very unpleasant experience. Lowest rating given based on various factors. Please understand the situation.

On this day, I tried going to a few different shops but couldn't find the right timing. Then, I stumbled upon this shop's sign on the street. I looked it up on Tabelog and it showed that the estimated budget for dinner was between 2000-2999 yen, so I decided to go in. However, this price range was incorrect. There were various things inside the shop that I can't describe here, so I'll just use stars to represent it. I was a bit scared to try out new restaurants for a while after this experience.

Today is a weekday Tuesday, and after trying out all the top curry restaurants in Osaka, I decided to search on Tabelog for a highly-rated new restaurant to visit. I found one, located just a 1-minute walk from JR Tozai Line Osaka Tenmangu Station Exit 9 on the 2nd floor of a building. The Tabelog rating at the time of my visit was 3.65. The opening time of the restaurant was 11:30 AM, and I arrived at 11:38 AM. I was directed to sit at the counter furthest back by the owner, who then asked me to watch a video on the iPad explaining the curry. After watching the first minute, we paused for a moment (laughs). I ordered a chai for my free drink and continued watching the video on the iPad. Just before finishing, the chai was brought to me at around 11:45 AM. Finally, I was able to order the curry. I ordered the 3 Types 3 Top Mix for 2000 yen, which included chicken, beef with mushrooms, and squid ink with shrimp. The curry was served at 11:52 AM. It was a curry with a lot of spices and a unique taste, which I really enjoyed! The owner had a strong personality, but it didn't feel unpleasant at all. Thank you for reading until the end! If you could give a 'like,' 'follow,' or 'save the restaurant,' it would be a great encouragement for me. Thank you in advance!

**Coco Peri Curry: Osaka - Minamimorimachi** Visited on January 17, 2023 (Tuesday night) Location: 1-minute walk from exit 9 of Minamimorimachi Station (about a 5-minute walk from Osaka Tenmangu Station) No waiting time at 7:00 PM. Located very close to Minamimorimachi Station, Coco Peri Curry is a curry restaurant known for the owner's strong commitment. They are open for both lunch and dinner. The interior is dark with stylish indirect lighting, and there is only a counter in a C-shape. There are three types of curry: Beef Curry, Chicken Curry, and Shrimp Curry. For first-time visitors, it is recommended to watch the introduction video of the restaurant or read the menu description in advance. I ordered a lassi (700 yen) as it is a one-drink system in the evening. It came with a tortilla-like appetizer with pickles on a distinctive blue plate. The curry set includes all three curry types with toppings, appetizer, and dessert (3,260 yen). The curry was served piping hot, and the slightly runny gravy had a strong acidity, giving a refreshing taste. The firm rice paired well with the curry. The tartar sauce and pickles were also tangy, making me feel very healthy! The dessert was none other than Häagen-Dazs ice cream, a perfect way to cleanse the palate without needing to buy from a convenience store.

[Visit Date] 12/22/2022 Lunch [Order] Assorted 3 kinds of curry (with iced coffee) I went to Coco Peri Curry, a place I've been curious about, for lunch as work was quiet that day. I was the only customer right after they opened. I sat down and watched a video about the restaurant first. Then I chose my drink and curry. I was also encouraged to read the explanation written on my phone during the process. The curry itself wasn't to my liking, but it was quite educational. It's interesting to see all the different types of restaurants out there. Thank you for the meal.

Visited with friends for lunch on a regular Friday. Arrived about 2 minutes before opening, but no one was waiting in line. Upon entering, we were instructed to watch a video explaining the curry on a tablet, and then place our order. After ordering, we were asked to continue watching the video, and then given a smartphone to read a very long article about the shop's commitment. Skimmed through the lengthy text, and after a short wait, the curry was served. We ordered the 3 types of curry with 3 toppings. It was spicier than expected but delicious. The pickles on the side were also tasty, and the toppings were enjoyable both separately and mixed in. The owner's passionate storytelling continued throughout our meal, and even after we finished eating. It wasn't until the next customers arrived that we were finally able to leave. The taste was great, and the attention to detail was impressive, but the owner's mannerisms were quite strong. The curry is absolutely fantastic! ^_^

This is a curry restaurant located on the 2nd floor of a building about a 5-minute walk from Osaka Tenmangu Station. I arrived just after the opening time on Sunday and managed to get a seat. The restaurant had a unique atmosphere with only a counter and the owner running the place. When I sat down, a tablet was placed in front of me showing the shop's appearance on TV. The owner took my order for the 3-curry platter of the day which included chicken, herb beef, and eggplant keema, with a drink included. The lassi drink arrived first, followed by the curry after about 10 minutes. The curry was oily, spicy, and occasionally tangy, with each curry having its own unique flavor. The chicken was large, the beef thinly sliced, and the eggplant fried. After finishing my meal and paying, the owner jokingly asked if I had forgotten anything, introducing himself as "Yuki Saito." Overall, it was a unique curry restaurant where the impression of the owner was more memorable than the curry itself. The curry was delicious.

First visit. "Cocoperi Curry" in Minami-Morimachi. Sunday, October 16, 2022. Today, I'm all about curry. I've been curious about this place for a while now. "Cocoperi Curry" in Minami-Morimachi. Finally, my first visit. 12:40 Arrived. Seats available. Seated. For the first visit, I was handed a tablet and asked to listen to an explanation. 12:45 Started with a drink order and got a lassi. Then, after listening to the explanation on the tablet, I placed my order. 12:52 Curry arrived. Three kinds of curry for 1500 yen with a drink included - I ordered lassi. The three curries were shrimp, chicken, and beef (or maybe pork?). The curry had a rich blend of spices that was delicious. The generous portions of ingredients and the slightly spicy curry were to my liking. Finished off with the lassi for a satisfying meal. The owner has a unique personality, which was a bit surprising at first, but I understood that it adds to the charm of the curry. Oh man, thanks for the delicious curry. #CocoperiCurry #Minami-Morimachi

In search of spicy curry. First, I was shown the system of this shop through an iPad. Despite the strict appearance of the shop, the manager was kind and made things fun with various puns. The curry came in three varieties with the option to add toppings. I thought they didn't have pickles, but they were actually arranged cutely on the plate, which made me chuckle. It was a delicious and playful restaurant. Thank you for the meal.

The day before, my wife and I talked about curry restaurants. Curry restaurants often have unique owners, and when we think of unique, we think of Coco Peri Curry! It had been a long time since we visited Coco Peri Curry, located at 2-6-12 Higashi-Tenjinbashi, Kita-ku, Osaka. It is a 2-minute walk from Osaka Tenmangu or Minami-Morimachi Station. We arrived at the restaurant a little after 12 pm. The restaurant has irregular closing days and operating hours are from 11:30 am to 3:00 pm for lunch and from 6:00 pm to 10:00 pm for dinner on weekdays, and from 11:30 am to 3:00 pm on weekends and holidays. We climbed the stairs and luckily there was no line outside. We used the hand sanitizer at the entrance and were seated at the counter as requested by the owner. Although taking photos inside the restaurant is prohibited, the owner allowed us to take pictures of the curry dishes. The owner asked if it was our first time at the restaurant, and after explaining that we had been there before, we were given a tablet with a YouTube video explaining how to order. We ordered a pomegranate soda as our drink and a variety of curries including Green Chicken Curry, Eggplant Keema Shaba, and the weekly special Garlic Pork Curry. We also ordered the 3 Top Mix with Potato Salad, Salsa Tomato, and Tartar Egg toppings. The owner also recommended the President's Special, which included a half serving of rice, triple the chicken in the Green Chicken Curry, and additional items. We enjoyed our drinks while watching the TV program (not mandatory). The owner also provided a smartphone for us to read and learn more about the restaurant. The owner was truly unique and full of personality. After a short wait, our curry dishes arrived. The marinated vegetables on the edge of the plate added a unique touch. The aroma of the spices was amazing when we removed our masks. The curry dishes were made with carefully selected ingredients and a Japanese-style dashi base soaked in kombu and dried shiitake mushrooms for 70 hours. The Green Chicken Curry was made with chicken from Torimasa Okuda Kashiwa, known for their sashimi-grade chicken. The Eggplant Keema Shaba had melt-in-your-mouth eggplant, and the weekly special Garlic Pork Curry had a rich pork flavor with a spicy kick. The toppings of Potato Salad, Tartar Egg, and Salsa Tomato added different flavors to the meal. We enjoyed the chaos of flavors while resetting our palates with the pickled vegetables on the plate's edge. We finished our meal and when we were about to leave, the owner asked if we had forgotten anything, showing his attention to detail. We thanked the owner and left the restaurant. Thank you for the delicious meal, Coco Peri Curry! We will definitely be back!

Osaka Tenmangu's Cocopeli Curry. There were empty seats available. The unique owner of the restaurant first recommends watching a video upon entering. You can order by watching a TV program featured video. Next, you are given a smartphone to read the explanation. Filming is allowed for the curry only. - Oolong tea (600 yen) is a one drink order system. - Appetizer (300 yen) is salsa, a salsa with acidity and spiciness on tomatoes, topped with potato salad and anchovies. - 3 kinds of curry (1,600 yen), Tartar egg (100 yen), Eggplant Keema, Green Chili Chicken Keema, Herb Beef Curry. Actually, it was supposed to be mackerel keema, but they were sold out! However, there were traces of mackerel in it, and it was enjoyable. Delicious! The eggplant was large and satisfying to eat, very delicious! The chicken was chunky and rich in protein! The beef curry was like a luxurious curry beef bowl, with a nice touch of herbs! The acidity was probably from mustard...? The sweetness of the tartar egg that intrudes into the acidity and spiciness was also exquisite.

I chose chicken and beef curry with potato salad and tartar egg toppings. The owner, who had a strong personality, greeted me. He explained the curry menu first and asked me to choose a drink. Feeling overwhelmed, I hastily chose the tea that caught my eye. Later, I regretted not choosing lassi instead. I then selected my curry. I tried to take photos inside the restaurant, but it seemed like photography was not allowed. The tea arrived, with a lovely aroma. I was then asked to watch a promotional video about the curry. After that, the owner handed me a self-introduction guide on his phone, but it was too long, so I gave up halfway. Meanwhile, the curry arrived. The potato salad and tartar egg toppings were delicious. The curry had a unique and flavorful taste with spices I had never tried before. It was so good that I couldn't stop eating. The taste was indescribable, but it was delicious. As I was leaving, the owner asked if I had forgotten anything, and we ended up joking around about lost items and singing. It was a fun and tasty experience.

I found it by searching for Osaka Prefecture x curry. It is located right after exiting the 9th exit of JR Osaka Tenmangu Station. I visited for the first time on a weekday night. It is on the 2nd floor of a building with a wooden L-shaped counter seat. Appetizer 300 yen: Appetizers are served at night. Tomatoes and potato salad are placed on rice crackers. Very spicy and delicious. Three kinds of curry for 1500 yen. Toppings: Tartar egg +100 yen, Salsa tomato +100 yen. The curries are Coconut Shrimp Curry, Green Chili Shrimp Curry, and Herb Beef Curry. Served on a large round plate with turmeric rice in the middle, surrounded by pickled vegetables. The shrimp curry has firm shrimp with a coconut aroma. The chicken is lean and easy to shred. The beef is topped with plenty of herbs. All three are quite spicy and delicious for spice lovers. They are all made from natural ingredients. Chai 600 yen: Cold chai in a long glass with a hint of sweetness, very delicious. One drink minimum at night. It was very delicious. The curry combines various flavors harmoniously. I thought it was a great curry shop for spicy curry lovers. The owner is knowledgeable and fun, teaching us various things.

On Saturday at 2:00 PM, I went to "Cocoperi Curry" in Minami-Morimachi. There were no other customers. As I entered, the tough-looking owner asked, "Is this your first time here?" When I said yes, he said, "Let me explain the curry for 30 seconds," and proceeded to explain the three types of curry, three homemade toppings, and the free drink that comes with the set. He recommended the "3 Variety Curry" with all toppings. I ordered the "Curry 3 Variety Plate (1,500 yen)" without any toppings since it was my first time. The three types of curry were "Green Chili Chicken Curry," "Ginger Sardine Curry," and "Garlic Pork Curry." While waiting, they showed me an introduction video of the restaurant on a tablet. The unique restaurant has been featured on TV as well. The curry arrived on a large plate, beautifully spiced. With the first bite, I found it delicious. It was watery, but the flavor, aroma, and spices were outstanding. The variety and balance of spices, as well as the balance of acidity and spiciness, were excellent. The chicken, pork, and sardines were all carefully selected ingredients that complemented the curry. Finally, I drank the complimentary drink and finished. The owner asked, "Was the spiciness okay?" I said it was fine, and he asked, "Is the spiciness like Toshiaki (actor Toshiaki Karasawa)?" making a joke. After sharing some curry trivia, as I was leaving, he asked, "Did you forget anything?" When I said no, he added, "Is it something hard to find?" with a reference to a song by Yosui Inoue. Despite the tough exterior of the owner, the curry was delicious, and I will definitely come back. Thank you for the meal.

On this day, after work, I headed to a curry mode! The place I went to was "Cocobeli Curry"! The restaurant is located a 1-minute walk from JR Tozai Line Osaka Temmangu Station exit 9. It is on the second floor of a building with various eateries. The owner runs the place alone, and there are about 8 seats at the L-shaped counter. The owner explained the curry options for the day: the classic Green Chili Chicken Curry, the weekly Coconut Shrimp Curry, and the Herb Beef Curry. At night, it's one drink plus one food order. I topped the 3-curry plate with a soft-boiled egg. I also enjoyed a delicious vinegar beer. First, I took a sip of the beer. Ahh, so tasty. While waiting for the curry, they served some appetizers. After about 15 minutes from the beer arrival, the curry finally arrived! The curry, made with a rich broth, was skillfully seasoned with a perfect balance of spiciness, acidity, and umami. The chicken in the classic curry was tender and paired perfectly with the curry. It was so delicious. It turns out the owner really focuses on the ingredients and cooking process. The way they use acidity in the curry was impressive. I was very satisfied. I even had another beer midway. It goes well with alcohol too. Thank you for the meal!

The curry was sour, did you start sweating? It was so strong that I couldn't even taste it properly, but thanks for the meal (lol). The owner is quite unique, but instead of being a spice pervert, they just seem like a regular person pretending to be one (lol). Thanks for the meal! This is Osaka, you know?

Visit date and time: 12:30 on a weekday Wait time: None Menu: Three kinds of curry (Drink: Calamansi Soda) 1,500 yen + Large serving 100 yen + Potato salad 100 yen + Salsa tomato 100 yen + Tartar egg 100 yen I heard there is a delicious curry restaurant in Minami-Morimachi, so I decided to visit. The restaurant is on the second floor, so it's a bit hard to spot at first glance. There was only one customer before me, so it was not crowded. I was recommended to try the three kinds of curry, so I followed the suggestion and placed my order. The drink is included in the set, and I chose the Calamansi Soda, which is citrus-based. It was quite sour but delicious. The curry was beautifully presented with colorful pickles arranged around the plate, making it Instagram-worthy. The curry had a decent level of spiciness. It was not too thick, so I ate it carefully to avoid splashing on my clothes, but it was tasty with plenty of ingredients. I added three toppings, but the potato salad and tartar egg had similar flavors, so one of them would have been enough. The tomato had a nice acidity, which was a good addition for flavor variation. The spiciness level was ★★☆☆☆. I felt more heat than spiciness, as I started sweating. The owner was said to have a strong personality, and it turned out to be true, but they were a kind person, and I had an enjoyable meal. I would like to come back again. Thank you for the meal.
