A legendary café-curry restaurant established in 1977 with over 44 years of history in Sasebo. The signature dish is a jet-black curry made with squid ink from Nagasaki's coastal waters, famous locally as 'Sasebo's spiciest curry' for its unique layering of sweetness and heat. Located near the entrance of the Yonkamachi shopping district, late-night queues are common. Open weekdays 7:00–midnight, weekends and holidays 24 hours. Yahoo! Maps 4.12, 45 reviews; Tabelog 146 reviews, 3,249 saves. Featured on NCC Nagasaki Cultural Broadcasting.

'Eating Black Curry at 2 AM is a whole different experience—a must when visiting Sasebo.' 'I'm amazed every time at how black it gets from squid ink.' '44 years and the taste hasn't changed—always come when I visit home.' 'It's spicy but I can't stop eating. The addictiveness is something else.'
