I read this last year's article "Go Go Curry Brings Japan's Authentic Comfort Food to NYC". Have you ever been to Go Go curry? (Now I remember I picked "Go Go curry goes NY" in my blog too.) He loves Japanese curry so much! He will go crazy if Coco Ichban or C&C Curry Shop go to the U.S too. However it is very easy to cook Japanese curry, like this recipe, what you need it Japanese curry paste. And you will get it at a Japanese shop or Asian super market easily. There are no rules and you can arrange it by yourself. You can add some tofu, green onion, mushroom, apple or pine apple (such fruits can match too). However, because of that, the curry can be deep and different in each shop and home. For example, here are two videos, one is an American guy cooking Japanese curry and another is Japanese lady. Both look pretty good to me. How about my curry? I add chopped and well-cooked brown onion, I prefer chicken without skin as meat, I choose the hottest paste. The point is, curry gets more tasty the next day after cooking.
Anyway this article is interesting too: "Cooking Up a Gaming Revolution". Last year, Nintendo released Shaberu Oryori navi world version. It has over 300 recipes of the world, not only Japan. Maybe they will release an English version, I guess.

Hi there, wow I didn't know you have such a lot of Japanese curry shops in NT. I have never been to NY, hopefully soon I try. Anyway I forgot to write about the most important recipe of mine. I add some vinegar! Vinegar make curry taste light and it doesn't thick and hard next day (usually curry have to be hard next day because of oil) try!

I once read that the most popular Japanese curry brand in the US is "Golden Curry," but the most popular brand in Japan is "Vermont Curry." Both are good, but I think I prefer the Golden Curry.
My wife the chef doesn't always like to use curry paste, though. She went online and found a recipe for making Japanese curry paste from scratch. She made something like this: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/275003
In my wife's recipe, though, it called for a whole mango rather than just mango chutney, and didn't mention the banana. I didn't think the result was too bad, but my wife hated it ;-)

There are probably a dozen places that make Japanese curry in New York (maybe even more) - I think Chris picked out this one just because it was near where he worked. There are two big areas with a lot of Japanese people in NYC - the East Village and midtown around the 50's - and there are many eateries catering to Japanese tastes in those areas. Ramen, curry, baked goods, fine dining, etc.
I used to get Japanese curry a lot at Italian Tomato in the East Village, but I think they actually got rid of their sit-down restaurant area now. We still make it at home a lot; it is very easy, really no different from making soup. And there are many Japanese markets that sell the paste in the same areas; Sunrise Mart, JAS Mart, etc.
