New Daruni Curry Shop

Established in 1947 in Osaka's Abeno area, this long-standing curry specialty shop has been cherished by locals for decades. Now run by the second-generation owner, it relocated to Kuromon Market under the name "New Daruni," continuing to delight fans with its traditional flavors.

The curry, inherited from the previous generation, is crafted not just for spiciness but to suit the Japanese palate, resulting in a nostalgic, comforting taste. The rich, velvety roux is packed with the umami of its ingredients, delivering a deep, flavorful experience. For a true connoisseur’s touch, adding a raw egg from the table is the way to go.

For those seeking a heartier meal, try topping your curry with the shop’s original tonkatsu (pork cutlet) or fried shrimp. These additions provide a satisfying crunch and bring a new dimension of flavor to the dish. The Japanese-style curry udon, infused with a robust dashi flavor, is another popular choice.

Takeout options include ready-to-eat retort curry, making it perfect as a gift or for enjoying at home. It’s an easy way to savor the authentic flavors of New Daruni wherever you are.
