The BEST Things to Do in Otaru, Japan｜Otaru Day Trip
Aoineko, a South Indian curry and lo-sweets restaurant tucked away in a residential area of Otaru Takashima, is the only one of its kind in Otaru, offering three things: high quality, healthy, and delicious. Using the safest ingredients possible, Aoineko serves original South Indian curries and beautiful, wholesome raw-sweets.
The restaurant is a self-renovated old house with a triangular roof. The interior of the restaurant is a relaxing and soothing space where you can take your time and relax, and the aroma of delicious spices wafts faintly in the air.
Authentic South Indian curries are made with organic ingredients, and unlike North Indian cuisine, they are made mainly with spices and Chinese herbs, with a gentle flavor that is considerate of the body. They are not spicy, but you can feel the effect on your body. The rice is basmati rice, a high-grade variety that has been cultivated in India and Pakistan for hundreds of years, and its name comes from the Hindi word for "queen of aroma. It has almost no stickiness, and its light and refreshing taste is ideal for South Indian curries.
Another selling point of Aoineko is its roasted sweets. They are made without any flour, white sugar, eggs, or dairy products, and are not heated. They are extremely healthy and allergy-free, making them ideal for dieters and health-conscious people. It has been attracting a lot of attention in recent years. The selection of roasted sweets changes depending on the day, so it may be a good idea to go out to enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime encounter with the raw sweets of the day.
