This is our favorite curry restaurant at home. My wife and I decided the day before to have curry at this restaurant. We left home a little early to arrive at 11:00 am when the restaurant opens. The parking lot is located behind the restaurant. I had never entered from the front before, so I decided to enter from the front this time. The smell of curry and the warmth of the wood stove inside the cozy restaurant were very pleasant. There were no other customers, so we were told to choose our favorite seats. I have not had the curry with roux here since I successfully dieted about 10 years ago. I always had soup curry because I was concerned about the calories. However, recently, my weight has not fluctuated much, so I decided to definitely choose the curry with roux this time. The question was, which curry to choose... whether to go for fried food or a topping I have never tried before... There is also something called a Men's Curry Set (multiple toppings with salad, ice cream, and a drink). My wife chose the shrimp curry ahead of me. So, I decided to avoid fried food. I chose the lamb curry with my favorite lamb meat. When ordering, if you show the Bumbun Club card (issued by the Hokkaido Shimbun), you get a free drink. I chose iced coffee, and my wife chose hot coffee after the meal. It took about 10 minutes for the curry to be ready. During that time, we chatted while listening to Yuming's songs that are always playing. The curry arrived. The visual was great. Mine came with fried potatoes, and the lamb meat was surprisingly large. My wife's shrimp fry was bigger than expected. It had been a while since I had Uncle Paparé's roux curry. It was the best. It had a unique crispiness and spiciness. The aftertaste lingering in my mouth was quite pleasant. I don't think any other restaurant can match this level of crispiness. The lamb meat was also good. It was tender with a moderate chewiness and a delicious lamb flavor. It was salty. The meat was surprisingly large, so I could thoroughly enjoy it. My wife gave me one shrimp fry. This shrimp fry was delicious. It was not fried too much, so the inside was hot but semi-raw. It was really tasty when dipped in the curry roux and eaten. And finally, I crunched on the tail of the shrimp fry... I carefully considered the ratio of roux to rice as I ate. I tried to scoop up as much roux left on the plate as possible with a spoon, but I couldn't get it all. I wanted to lick it clean, but it was too embarrassing. I felt like I wanted to scoop it up with bread. After the meal, I had iced coffee. It was quite delicious. My wife's hot coffee was dripped by the master behind the counter. It was a delicious hot coffee. You can enjoy a leisurely and delicious time at this famous restaurant. They have a point card system here. It's a stamp type of card. I actually have several at home. This point card has no expiration date. And the best part is that they can combine multiple point cards. This time, I saved one card, so I got a 500 yen discount on the bill. There are pictures of babies on the wall at the back of the counter. They are the owner's grandchildren. The design of these pictures is nice. They are made quite stylishly. This shows good taste. The ambiance of the restaurant, the presentation, the taste, it all comes down to having good taste. Thank you for the meal. I will definitely visit again.

I had been wanting to visit this restaurant for a while. The atmosphere is spacious and during lunchtime there were several groups of customers. Children were playing in the kitchen, creating a relaxed and peaceful vibe. The staff were very kind and friendly. The Yuming songs playing in the background matched well and added to the emotional atmosphere. I ordered the beef curry, which was amazing. It was rich and creamy, with a concentrated depth of flavor. It had a pleasant spiciness and the meat was tender. Overall, I was able to enjoy a delicious and intricately prepared curry in a calming atmosphere.

I took a day off to go to the hospital on August 2021. As I am in my 40s, I find myself taking more of these days off for medical appointments. I visited two hospitals and was released by early afternoon. I could have gone to work, but I was tired from the hospital visits, so I decided to take the day off. I went to "Curry House Uncle Pepperly," a ramen shop in Hakodate. The music playing in the shop was very soothing. Among the Hakodate ramen options, this one had a slightly stronger salt flavor, making it more tolerable. I tried the curry cutlet rice for 1100 yen, and the curry sauce was rich and flavorful with a hint of spices. The cutlet was crispy and delicious. Overall, I enjoyed the meal and would recommend it.

"Uncle Pepper" I'm alone in Asahikawa on a weekday. Today is the day when my wife comes home late, so I will go home slowly. I was worried if I could get takeout curry from the restaurant, but when I saw the photos on Tabelog, it said "Takeout available," so I decided to call. A man answered the phone. "Can I get takeout?" I asked. "Yes, you can," he replied. "I'd like one serving of pork curry roux only, please." "Understood. Please come before 3 o'clock, as we close then." Do I have to hurry to make it in time? I was planning to stop by another place first, but that won't make it in time. I barely made it before the deadline. There was a sign on the door saying "Haircut 3,000 yen," is this a barbershop or a beauty salon? I looked around from above the store. Is it a separate place? But I could smell the curry, so it must be the right place. Even though it was closed, there was a customer eating alone inside. He stood up when I said, "I'm Keipon!" But this guy didn't even respond. It seemed like he was just a regular customer getting up to get a tissue to blow his nose. I got frustrated for no reason. I've been blaming others to survive. An old man came out of the kitchen, so I said again, "I'm Keipon!" I got a paper bag for 550 yen. The old man had the same face as the sign outside. It was in a Cup Noodles container. Wait, isn't that different? I recently decided to eat three meals a day and reduced my alcohol intake slightly. Eating breakfast and lunch made me eat less at night, and I ended up losing weight. I've been drinking more water, not necessarily for health reasons, but to avoid gaining weight. So tonight, since I haven't eaten much and have to write about it, I'll finish with the curry I bought yesterday. Rice is just a side dish. I don't eat much rice even though I love curry. When it was in the cup, it seemed watery, but when I poured it onto a plate, it held its shape. It's not watery. The smell is medicinal. I don't like the smell of medicine, but it's not as strong as the smell suggests. It must be because of the spices. It's delicious. The old man didn't seem like a spice user, but he's quite skilled. Despite the spiciness, it's not hot, so you can add more spice to your liking. I don't want to ruin the flavor, so I'll eat it as is. It was a delicious curry. My wife also liked it."

This is my first time visiting! It's located in a slightly intricate place with parking available. The curry roux is really delicious. I chose a curry made with lamb meat, like a true Hokkaido resident. Fukujinzuke and pickled radish are self-service. The regular size is 1150 yen. PayPay is accepted.

Mr. Uncle Pepper's yellow curry restaurant has a stylish and cafe-like interior. The curry here, especially the roux curry, has a good spiced aroma from the appearance. When you eat it, the roux has a flavor where the ingredients blend well together. Despite the appearance, it's not very spicy but delicious. It was founded in 1984, and you can taste the depth of flavor. The cutlets are crispy and the meat is delicious. If you want to eat delicious roux curry, I recommend it. Thank you for the meal.

A long-established curry specialty shop. I visited after a long time. The interior is clean, with a warm "wood stove" and background music by Yuming (although sometimes other music is played, it seems that Yuming is played more often). It's a wonderful shop! They have only one type of soup curry, but the main dish is roux curry. (They also have pizza, spaghetti, and pilaf.) I ordered the "Pork Wiener Curry" (1,100 yen, including tax) and a "Salad (small)" (500 yen, with a 100 yen discount when ordered with a meal). There is a "service drink" for 150 yen when ordered with curry, so I ordered an "orange juice" and enjoyed it while waiting for the curry to be ready. The shop owner brought it to me in just over 10 minutes. The Pork Wiener Curry has a mild spiciness, but the flavor is very "spicy." I didn't ask about the types of spices used, but you can tell that many spices are blended. I think the roux is made with great care over time. The texture of the Pork Wiener is crispy on the outside. When I asked the owner, he said it was a special order. It was a handmade coarsely ground wiener with a meaty flavor when chewed. The salad is made of crisp, chilled raw vegetables (cabbage, cucumber, tomato, lettuce) with aurora sauce drizzled on top and potato salad on the side. Lemon is also included, and not only is it delicious, but it is also beautifully presented! The layout of the interior is very spacious, and I was able to enjoy the delicious curry at a leisurely pace!

It's been a long time since I visited Uncle Papali. I think the last time was 7 years ago, or maybe even longer. It's a place I used to go to before I started using Tabelog, and I often used to get their curry to go. This time I had the pork curry, but I should have gone with the chicken instead. It's a bit light on the fatty parts, so it's on the milder side. The unique spice flavor with a hint of cinnamon as an accent, gives it a distinctive taste that sets it apart as a European-style curry. For those who only know the old days of Meme-tei before it closed, or the MERB in Toma, they might think it's something completely different, but Meme-tei has gradually evolved over time, so it's a bit different now. Personally, I enjoy both versions and it's still delicious as always, so it's all good (laughs). It's a shame they don't offer the ice cream after the meal anymore (laughs).

The curry specialty restaurant that had a good reputation around me and had caught my interest for a while. I finally visited it this time! I did a full circle around the store to check the parking lot. Following the guidance to enter from the back door, I stepped into the store... Immediately greeted by a wonderful aroma of curry spices. It must be delicious for sure. The smell is so important, isn't it? The owner, perhaps, welcomed me very nicely. I feel like I can enjoy the curry in a good mood. Now, looking at the menu... I decided to start with the "Ladies Curry Set" for 1250 yen. Although tempted by dishes like oyster fry and lamb, I chose to debut with a plain type. Oh... they also have soup curry. I prefer roux curry, so maybe next time... The order arrived in about 20 minutes. With each bite, I can taste the depth of flavor in the curry, with a hint of cinnamon and some matured elements adding richness. It's very delicious. The consistency is just right and the rice is cooked perfectly with good quality grains. The shrimp fry is crispy with plump shrimp. The pork sausage is surprisingly tasty with a crispy texture. This curry... I think I might end up liking it more and more with each bite. I might get hooked on it. I definitely want to go back again. It was so delicious. Thank you for the meal.

"Uncle Pepper's" has been running a curry house in Asahikawa City for over 30 years. I used to visit occasionally but had not been in a while. I ordered the "Men's Curry Set B (pork cutlet, small shrimp, salad) for 1,350 yen, and my companion ordered the "Ladies Curry Set C (pork cutlet, clams, salad) for 1,250 yen. Both sets come with a drink and ice cream. The curry has a rich coffee-colored roux with small shrimp, a hint of acidity, and a well-balanced spice that creates a fragrant and flavorful taste. The pork cutlet was freshly fried, with a crispy coating and tender meat that paired perfectly with the curry. I still love the curry here. Additionally, the restaurant is connected to a beauty salon (run by the owner's daughter) and a squash court. There is a parking lot at the back of the store, where you can also enter from."

This is catalog {021} - an adult curry. It's not too spicy, but it has a nice kick to it. It's light and smooth, yet rich and leaves a long-lasting aftertaste. It feels like the flavors have been roasted. It's not the type of curry you eat quickly. The dish I had was steak curry, which was so luxurious! I had a memory of enjoying an American-style steak curry at a restaurant called Yoneyatei a long time ago, so I was hoping for a similar experience here. However, the steak curry I had was more refined and sophisticated. It was a slow, chewy meat that was delicious. The restaurant staff were kind enough to repeatedly check with a family dining with young children if the curry was not too spicy for the kids. Good flavors are important, but this kind of consideration is equally valuable. Overall, I had a refreshing experience. And of course, the squash was a highlight! Thank you for the meal.

Uncle Pepper, which opened in 1984, is the oldest curry specialty shop in Asahikawa, following the closure of the long-established curry specialty shop Yoneya in March 2017. The shop also has a squash space, and it is interestingly designed with a beauty salon on the right side when entering from the front entrance. The main reasons I regularly visit are the delicious curry and the polite and cheerful customer service of the owner. The shop plays Yumi Matsutoya's songs that I heard and grew up with since childhood, and the appearance reminds me of a movie starring Miho Nakayama and Yuji Oda that I saw back then. On this day, I visited with my mother in the evening. The sparkling flooring and clean interior create a sense of cleanliness. We ordered the Lamb Curry for ¥1,150, Fried Oyster Curry for ¥1,100, and a Large Salad for ¥600 (¥100 off when ordered with a meal). The pleasant aroma of spices in the shop raises my spirits. While waiting and during the meal, I hold a brain quiz on Yumi Matsutoya's songs in my head. The owner served the curries with a smile one after another. My Lamb Curry had thick lamb meat with a steak-like thickness and a well-seasoned taste. The fried potatoes were sweet and simple yet delicious. The visual appearance and the taste of the roux may remind those who know Yoneya, but the combination of spices is completely different. I particularly feel the refreshing flavor of cardamom, and I think the roux, which is smooth when scooped with a spoon, has a rich sauce-like richness. According to a gourmet magazine that featured Uncle Pepper, the curry is made by sautéing 24 types of spices in lard, simmering in a beef bone soup with various ingredients (abbreviated here), and taking a week to complete. Imagining the effort and time put into it makes me feel grateful while eating. The spiciness is just right, and my body warms up gently afterward. The salad, with a dressing flavored like Aurora sauce and a lemon garnish, is refreshing for getting enough vegetables. The beloved potato salad is also delicious. My mother loves curry, and when I first brought her to Uncle Pepper, she said, "I haven't had delicious curry in a long time!" which made me very happy, even though I didn't make it myself. Although I always decide in my heart to try the pizza or pasta next time, I succumbed to the temptation of curry again this time, so I aim for revenge next time.

It was my first visit and I had been wanting to go for a while but finally made it! However, it was snowing heavily (lol). I couldn't find the parking lot in the back and ended up wandering around a bit. The interior of the restaurant was surprisingly spacious with a wide space between the counter and table seats. The stove was stylish though. I chose the pork cutlet curry! The way they serve the rice gives off a vibe of a long-established place! The curry was flavorful with a hint of spice and the pork cutlet was crispy and fresh. It had a good amount of food. When I entered, there was a radio playing in the background but then they switched to music. Personally, I preferred the radio (lol).

Fried oyster curry, with incredibly large fried oysters! Of course, the curry flavor is also excellent.

I ordered the ladies set with hamburger. You can choose the spiciness level of the curry, but even the mild one had a good amount of spices and was rich in flavor. Thank you for the meal. They also served coffee with freshly ground beans.

I happened to pass by a shop with a yellow sign and the words "since 1984" caught my attention, so I decided to go in. I was a little worried about the menu photos not looking great, but I ordered the lamb curry. Inside the restaurant, they were playing Yuming's music, and I picked up a manga called "Urayasu" to read while waiting. When the curry arrived, it was delicious! The flavor and spiciness were just right. I'm not really sure about the details of the taste, so I'll skip that, but it was just really tasty. I was happy that I could also eat Fukujinzuke with the curry. The warm atmosphere created by the friendly staff and regular customers made me feel cozy. After enjoying the manga "Urayasu" thoroughly even after the meal, I left thinking about trying a different menu next time. Thank you for the meal!
