About 7 minutes by car from Naha Airport. This curry cafe is located in Kume, Naha City. It is not a place for the average tourist, but a place that must be remembered by tourists for its elaborate taste. Please try the curry filled with Agu pork and Bukubuku coffee, not Bukubuku tea.
Point 1: 7 minutes from the airport! What is the location of Curry Cafe Okinawan Style Naha City Kume Branch?
Curry Cafe Okinawa-Style Naha City Kume Branch” is located in Kume, Naha City, only 7 minutes by car from Naha Airport.
It is located on the right side of Wakasa Naka-dori Street toward Kokusai-dori Street, right next to the site of the Chinese garden, Fuzhou-en. On the same street, there is also “Sweets Specialized Unmanned Sweets Shop Naha,” an area where rare stores gather in secret.
The name of the store, “Okinawan style,” is unique, as is the interior decor, which is made of lots of wood and is not tropical, but it is also very comfortable and relaxing.
Although it is only a 10-minute walk from Kokusai-dori Avenue, the hustle and bustle of the area is a mere lie, creating a quiet and relaxing atmosphere.
The large wooden tables, bare light bulbs, and rows of books lined up in the back give it a unique appearance, much like a book café with a long history. This quirkiness may be the strength of its uniqueness.
Point 2: Introduction of the curry menu at “Curry Cafe Okinawan Style, Naha City Kume Branch”!
Curry Cafe Okinawa-Style Naha City Kume Branch offers three types of curry: Old Sake Curry (1,050 yen), Uminin Curry (1,350 yen), and Agu Curry (1,360 yen).
All are popular, but if you want something Okinawan, we recommend the rich “Agu Curry,” which is made with bright yellow turmeric rice and filled with Agu pork!
However, the “Old Sake Curry,” made with old sake kneaded into the spices, and the “Kaijin Curry,” filled with seafood, is also hard to ignore! They are all spicy, and the spice permeates the body.
I have a hard time deciding on just one.
Many restaurants in Naha serve delicious curry, but this one may be at the top of the list in terms of restaurants that pursue the Okinawan flavor.
Point 3: What is “Curry Cafe Okinawan Style, Naha City Kume Branch” specialty Bukubuku coffee?
Curry Cafe Okinawa Shiki Naha City Kume Branch” has a menu item called “Bukubuku Coffee.
This is a type of “Furicha” tea that has been handed down in Okinawa since ancient times. Sencha and Sanpincha teas are whisked together with a tea whisk, and the whisk was originally served on top of sekihan (red rice).
This custom temporarily died out during the Meiji period (1868-1912), but it was revived in recent years, and now there are more varieties of tea available, such as “Bukubuku coffee” (580 yen), which has been commercialized.
The coffee, when whipped with a tea whisk instead of tea, has a very rich aroma and a slight sweetness from the brown sugar. This coffee contains spices such as turmeric and Chinese cinnamon, as well as soybeans, making it a coffee that heals the body when drunk.
The other drink is “Baked Bean Bukubuku Tea” (580 yen), which tastes more like coffee than tea, and the frothing makes the tea more mellow.
Please give it a try.
