About this place
For some diners, chilled curry udon is a highlight of summer at Rosabarie. The dish pairs cold udon noodles with a raw egg, which is mixed in before eating. Once the noodles are gone, rice can be added to the remaining curry broth to finish the meal. One diner wrote that adding warm rice made the spice more noticeable. The dish has been featured as a summer-only menu item, so check whether it is being served if you have your heart set on trying it.
The regular light-meal menu offers several other choices. Omu hayashi—an omelette served with hayashi rice—costs ¥800, while the combination omu hayashi and curry costs ¥850. Some reviews mention the pairing of hayashi sauce and curry, as well as the way the egg’s sweetness complements the sauce. For something lighter, mixed sandwiches and egg sandwiches are ¥650 each. Hayashi rice is also available for ¥700, making it easy to choose according to your appetite.
The café has counter and table seating, and is described as suitable for dining alone. With film posters and photographs on the walls, it has the feel of a coffee shop where you can settle in over a coffee after your meal.
