About this place
In Ikebukuro 3-chome, Green Curry M keeps its midday offering resolutely focused: the kitchen prepares just one signature green curry. Brought to the table with an appetizing, vivid hue, the curry balances the mellow creaminess of coconut milk with a gentle heat that surfaces gradually. Tender chicken yielding easily to a spoon and shimeji mushrooms provide savory depth, while the smooth, light curry sauce naturally coats the fluffy grains of rice.
A particularly tempting option is adding the soft-scrambled omelet topping. Its melting texture ties the sauce and rice together, enhancing the dish with a rich, creamy dimension. Along the way, diners can alter the profile using the provided powdered sansho pepper. A light dusting introduces an invigorating citrusy aroma and a pleasant tingle, sharpening the contours of the sweet coconut broth.
Inside, a self-service beverage corner allows guests to help themselves freely to jasmine tea, coffee, and cafe au lait. Despite the limited lunch window, the tranquil dining room makes it easy to unwind and linger over the trailing notes of spice before heading back out.
