Enjoy Freshly Fried Curry Bread While Strolling Through a Retro Street
About this spot
This shop along the hot spring town's main street is famous for its specialty "Haikara-san Curry Bread." The freshly fried curry bread has a crispy exterior with creamy curry filling packed inside, making it a beloved street food for tourists enjoying the Taisho-era scenery. The shop's name "Haikara-san" perfectly suits the modern Western food culture that flourished during the Taisho period. Packaged curry bread is also available for souvenirs. If you visit as dusk approaches and gas lamps begin to glow, you can savor the town's most romantic moment, curry bread in hand.
Tips
The shop is easy to find along the main street. Curry bread is popular and may sell out by evening, so visit earlier if you want to be sure to get some. It's a small shop, so bringing cash ensures smooth transactions. Please dispose of any trash properly when eating while walking.
Best time to visit
Approximately 1 hour. Visit at dusk to enjoy the street alongside the gas lamp lighting—it's the best experience.
