Curry Cocktail

At the incredibly tacky, yet surprisingly popular Yokohama Curry Museum, a curry-flavoured cocktail is now available. The drink is called Karetini, and is based on gin. But to live up to its billing it contains curry spices and red pepper.

I have to admit that I’m not a big cocktail fan, but this new concoction sounds particularly unappealing. Plus an official of the museum claims, “it will cause you to perspire” which is not something I generally look for in an alcoholic beverage.

Lets just hope it’s not one of those cold sweats that usually precede projectile vomiting.

    The Yokahama Curry Museum is a blast. Try eating a differnt curry from each region of Japan (the baked gratin-like curry is tasty), buy some natto curry in the shop, and before getting back on the train for Tokyo, hit Chinatown for a five course meal. Oishi des-ne?
