english menus: He wanted to try all the food Japan had to offer but was struggling to find restaurants in his neighborhood with English menus. ; Then he found one that did, just across the street from where he lived, according to The Japan Times. It was called Coco Ichibanya, a restaurant chain with more than 1,200 outlets across Japan that serves what's called curry rice, a thick brown curry sauce often including meat and vegetables that's poured over a bed of sticky rice. It was 2015, and New Delhi native Robin Srivastava had started a two-year temporary transfer to Tokyo in the mineral and metal resources division of the giant conglomerate Mitsui & Co. While completely different from the curries of his homeland, the Japanese version impressed Srivastava so much that when he returned home and submitted a report on his training, he suggested that Mitsui try to bring the chain to India. The two companies announced in July that they had formed a joint venture targeting the country, aiming to open their first outlet in the New Delhi area sometime next year. Mitsui and later the restaurant operator, Ichibanya Co. liked the idea.
