Japanese curry is so different from the curry we Malaysians are used to. For one, it tastes powdery and sweeter than Malay/Indian curry due to the addition of fruits such as apples, mango and other dubious items(well, dubious for me anyway) like caramel and honey in making the curry.
Zaini enjoys the Japanese version as much as he enjoy the Mamak curry, but I'm still not keen on them. Like ramen, we don't eat them when we are in Japan because, as advised by Malaysian Muslim currently staying in Japan, the curry ingredients might contain lard in it, which we, are forbidden to eat. Typical curry ingredients are onions, carrots, potatos with meat and also seafood.
We've yet to try curry udon though.
If you are trying to save cost while vacationing in Japan, curry rice (and ramen too) can be a cheap meal option for you if you have no food restrictions like us.
