Kokorro Curry PH CDO officially opened its doors in Cagayan de Oro last November 11, 2024, bringing a new and flavorful Japanese dining experience to the city.
With a focus on authentic curry dishes, the restaurant combines Japanese culinary traditions with a touch of Filipino warmth. Their opening was composed of a blessing and a ribbon-cutting ceremony with the owners, their families, staff, and friends.
Kokorro Curry PH stands out as a unique destination, specializing solely in curry dishes—a rarity in Cagayan de Oro’s diverse food scene. Founded by Joey Garcia, Kokorro Curry PH is inspired by the talents of Japanese chef Tencho-san.
His deep expertise, along with a cherished family recipe, brings to life the rich flavors and traditions of Japanese curry that have been perfected over generations.
The restaurant’s culinary process is a labor of love. The chefs meticulously prepare each curry over a two-hour cooking period, using a special technique to blend fresh ingredients seamlessly. They also import premium curry powder directly from Japan to ensure every dish captures the authentic taste of Japanese cuisine. In addition, the restaurant offers “no pork” food options on their menu.
Kokorro Curry PH’s ambiance mirrors that of traditional mom-and-pop eateries in Japan. This cozy, 30-seat restaurant combines clean lines, natural materials, and a minimalist design that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. Located as a stand-alone eatery, it provides an intimate space for diners to immerse themselves in Japanese culture.
The menu currently features eleven signature curry-based dishes, including beloved classics like Koko Loaded Curry, Beef Curry, Chicken Katsu Curry, and unique options like Fried Shrimp Curry, Fried Squid Curry, and Sausage Curry. Each dish promises a savory experience, making Kokorro Curry PH CDO a must-visit for curry enthusiasts.
Kokorro Curry PH CDO aims to do more than serve food; it seeks to bring people together through quality, authenticity, and a dedication to Japanese flavors.
It is a restaurant founded on tradition, passion, and a commitment to providing a casual dining experience that leaves a lasting impression.
