What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A European-style curry specialty restaurant opened in 2011 by Yozo Shiraishi, who trained for 10 years at a Western food restaurant. Despite only 8 counter seats, the rich 'sweet-and-spicy curry' made from a bouillon base of beef shank, aromatics, and fruit draws long queues. Selected for Tabelog Curry WEST 100 Best Restaurants 2024. Tabelog 3.62, 860 reviews. Recognized as the go-to curry spot in Takatsuki.

'If you're eating curry in Takatsuki, there's only one choice. I've been coming for over 10 years.' 'The flavor starts sweet then gently builds to spicy—perfectly balanced.' 'Counter-only and fast turnover, but lunch still has a queue. I come every week anyway.' 'Even after the 100 Best Restaurants award, the taste and value remain unchanged—incredible.'
