Have you ever heard of curry bread? If not, you are definitely missing out! Curry bread, or kare pan, is a popular Japanese snack in which curry is wrapped in dough, seasoned with breadcrumbs, and then deep fried. The result is a crispy exterior with a soft, pillowy inside filled with mildly-spiced Japanese curry. The combination is heavenly.

If the thought of this curry bread is making you salivate, we have just the place for you—Giraffa, located near Kamakura Station.

Giraffa is a curry bread shop that is committed to becoming the most famous curry bread specialty store in Japan. The eatery uses slightly sweet, milk-flavored dough and fills it with cheese and curry seasoned with 30 different spices. The hand-held deliciousness is then deep-fried to perfection. For optimal satisfaction, Giraffa recommends that customers eat the curry bread immediately after purchasing so it retains its satisfying crunch and warmth.

If you are in the Kamakura area and are looking for a satisfying snack on the go, "Giraffa’s curry bread" is a must-try.
