Dish: Curry of the day
Restaurant: Sangam
Location: Fukuyama, Japan
Price: 800 Yen
Description: This was the lunch special. It consisted of chicken and pumpkin curry, naan, and and a a delicious cup of hot chai.
Fun facts: The lunch special includes all you can eat naan. The menu is in Japanese and English. The staff, in addition to their native language (please excuse my ignorance), speaks Japanese and English.
I love the vibe of this restaurant. As I walk through the door, I feel as if I am stepping into another world. A world that is not Japan. I understand that this may sound a little absurd, but sometimes having a break from the constant influx of Japanese culture is great. It was my decision to come to Japan and to extend my contract and I have no regrets. It's just that not having a break from a culture that is so different than mine is intense. Culture shock does not go away.
Anyway, back to the restaurant...I love the curry selection and the various types of naan. My favorite thing on the menu thus far has been the Chicken Tandoori Salad. The tangy dressing that has been drizzled across the top provides a nice contrast to the slightly sweet chicken. The menu is large and I cannot wait to see what's next.
