Aeon Gourmet World: Camp Express

Camp Express can be found on the fourth floor of Aeon Rycom’s Gourmet world, at the far end from the escalators, just past Baskin Robbins.

To sum up: It’s a curry place. However, actually quite different from any other curry I’ve tried on island. The food is served in large skillets, and you eat with a mini shovel! The novelty is quite charming. So what’s the food like? Frankly, it’s amazing. I chose the pork, cheese and potato curry. The sauce was interesting, very loose, more like a broth than a curry, but rich and sweet, not in the least bit watery. There was no real spice, but this doesn’t detract from what is a very enjoyable meal. The pork was tender and juicy, potatoes were chunky and filling, with the cheese, sweetcorn and onions all complimenting it perfectly. You get a decent portion too. They have seafood and vegetarian options, as well as a kids curry, something for everyone.

Drinks wise, it’s pretty limited, just sodas and juices, but you can add these to any dish for relatively little. Pricing is fair, I paid only 990 yen for the curry and a small orange juice, and was certainly well sated at the end!

Worth a visit if you’re looking for something a little different.
