Soup Curry
Sapporo's Signature Spiced Soup Curry
Discover the rich flavors of soup curry, Sapporo's iconic local specialty known for its aromatic spices, colorful ingredients, and light yet satisfying broth.
While Sapporo is famous for its ramen, soup curry has grown into one of the city's best-known local specialties. One of its roots can be traced to the 1970s, when a spice-based dish inspired by traditional medicinal cooking was served at a local café called Ajanta.
Unlike traditional thick curries, soup curry features a light, broth-like soup infused with aromatic spices. Each spoonful reveals deeper layers of flavor and richness.
Today, soup curry is typically served with ingredients such as chicken, shrimp, and scallops, along with large-cut vegetables such as green peppers, eggplant, and carrots. The flavorful broth highlights the natural sweetness and umami of the ingredients, allowing you to enjoy their authentic taste.
Sapporo is now home to more than 200 specialty soup curry restaurants, each offering a wide variety of soup bases and spice levels. Exploring the city in search of your own favorite bowl is part of the fun of a trip to Sapporo. Be sure to try this local specialty and experience one of the flavors that defines Sapporo.
