The continuous roll-out of innovative and creative mazesoba expressions remains a key element in the brand's identity, and through the years we've seen some truly unique creations from the kitchens of Menya Kokoro (for more on Menya Kokoro, see my posts Menya Kokoro Unveils Three New Offerings With The Wagyu A5 Mazesoba, A5 Wagyu Don And Iekei Ramen from late last year, Mazesoba, Yakitori, Kushiyaki, Kushikatsu And Highballs At The Newest Location Of Menya Kokoro Ramen Izakaya In San Juan from April last year, Not Ramen. Not Soba. It's Mazesoba. Menya Kokoro Presents Two New Mazesoba Creations...from 2025, #MazeCraze: Cool 2 For 1 Mazesoba Deal At Menya Kokoro from early 2024 and #TokyosNumber1Mazesoba: Prepare For A New Ramen Experience By Menya Kokoro Tokyo Mazesoba on the opening from back in 2019). The new White Curry Mazesoba continues this tradition for one more compelling reason to visit Menya Kokoro. Like right now...

For its latest creation, Menya Kokoro takes on the classic Japanese curry adding some seriously wicked alchemy making it a luscious, creamier and decadent mazesoba experience. Imagine the deep, bold notes and mild heat of the traditional Japanese curry, made even richer in a creamy white curry. Add tender chicken, potatoes and carrots topped with egg yolk and you have pure and unrestrained savory goodness in a mazesoba bowl. 

The always busy open kitchen at Menya Kokoro then prepares my order of the new White Curry Mazesoba... 

Another rainy day calls for the Lemon Sour, a refreshingly crisp alcoholic libation to open up the palate for the bold and unrestrained flavors of the new White Curry Mazesoba...

One more soothing sip, and the rainy day blues are replaced by excited anticipation for the new White Curry Mazesoba at Menya Kokoro. 

Menya Kokoro has a number of savory staples you just can't pass up. Like their crisp and succulent Tempura. Fresh off the grill Yakitori. And the Gyoza, a constant part of any order list at Menya Kokoro. Soft and mildly chewy on top with a seared and crisp bottom and generously stuffed with a savory pork filling, this is the perfect side to any bowl of mazesoba at Menya Kokoro. Like the new White Curry Mazesoba...

Then, the new White Curry Mazesoba (P 520) is ready...

Topped with egg yolk, the new White Curry Mazesoba is a bold expression of delicately layered savory richness in a bowl. That intricately whipped lusciously smooth topping is what sets the White Curry Mazesoba apart from the previous limited edition variations at Menya Kokoro for a leveled up rendition of the traditional Japanese curry staple. It brings a lavish textural finish to the mazesoba experience, enhancing the deep flavors of the Japanese curry. 

And now you can experience Japanese curry unlike any other at Menya Kokoro with the new White Curry Mazesoba for the perfect welcome to the BER months. 

Made with potatoes and egg whites, the textural play complements the Japanese curry with its savory and smooth finish. The egg yolk is the perfect finishing touch to the White Curry Mazesoba adding that one final layer of indulgent texture to the rich curry flavors of the limited time offering at Menya Kokoro. 

Simply mix up the bowl and let each layer from the creamy white topping to the savory curry and soft yet firm soba noodles come together before that very first comforting bite...

...and just let the lingering richness drape the palate with its comforting notes. The intense flavors of the curry comes through with just a whisper of soothing heat tempered by the creamy white topping for balanced flavors. And just like the signature mazesoba at Menya Kokoro, a light drizzle of Konbu Vinegar cuts through the savory richness and you're ready for another round of tasty bites. The delicate balance of mildly sweet, savory and gentle spice all come together seamlessly in one bite. 

The curry itself with tender chunks of chicken, potatoes and carrots recreates the traditional staple as the savory base for the new creation. The noodles and creamy white topping complete the textural and flavorful play for a unique mazesoba experience you won't find anywhere. 

And as you reach the bottom of the bowl, cap the mazesoba experience with the "oi-meshi" or topping the leftover sauce with a small scoop of rice. The rice absorbs and soaks up the flavors of the curry sauce, released with each spoonful in a flavorful burst. 

And that's how you cap your mazesoba experience at Menya Kokoro. Through the years, Menya Kokoro has established relevant and distinctive differentiation from the usual ramen and soba joints in the metro. The gap widens even more with the continuous roll-out of seasonal and limited time creations like the White Curry Mazesoba. 

An empty bowl tells quite a lot about the new White Curry Mazesoba at Menya Kokoro with no need for words. Now it's your turn to grab your own bowl of White Curry Mazesoba and rediscover pure Japanese curry goodness reinterpreted in a comforting bowl of mazesoba. But better hurry. The new White Curry Mazesoba is only available for a limited time...
