Camp Curry Now Open At Ayala Malls Feliz!

Most people go on camping trips because they're tired of the city or looking for some adventure. Whether you enjoy biking, hunting or any other outdoor activity, I’ve heard that camping offers you a lot of benefits like focus completely on a hobby or do things that you like without external distractions or solely to meditate.




But if I’m going to be a hundred percent honest, the urban girl in me quite dislike camping especially that I don’t have some essential things readily available for me. I’ve slept inside a tent only two times my entire life and both were by the shore near the beach. And the second one was even glamping. I enjoyed both, but if I have a choice between that and a comfier option I would likely to choose the latter.




Camp Curry came from the passion of the founder Takashi Sato with camping, as well as the desire to introduce Japanese curry to the different markets around the world. In Japan, curry is perceived as one of the more sought-after dishes for the locals, which makes Camp Curry a great addition to Manila’s growing food scene. 




Camp Curry opened in 2007 as the No. 1 shop that sells vegetable curry behind an alley of Tokyo in Yoyogi, Japan. It was known for its vegetable curry which served seasonal vegetables abundantly. Sato san wanted to give off the lively vibe he has always advocated which equated to having a campy-vibe for the brand.




Last week, I visited their second branch in Ayala Malls Feliz and just like all other 32 branches of Camp Curry from around Asia, this restaurant mixes a great camping ambiance with great tasting food. Every little detail is carefully thought of to fit the camping theme - from the utensils all the way to the decor, you can feel the camping vibe. With the open kitchen setting, Camp Curry is the only curry house that gives diners a look at exactly how their food is prepared.




Aside from its seasoned vegetables and vegetable curry, Camp Curry serves other sources of protein from pork, beef, chicken and shrimps with your choice of curry on the side. And they also launched some great additions to their menu that I got to try with my other foodie friends.

I totally loved the interiors of Camp Curry with all the camping related decors and I find the utensils and thermos I find super cool! When it comes to the food, I liked everything but my favorites were: Potato Croquette (they were super cheesy, creamy and crispy); Cheesy Gyoza (loved the combo of cheese with gyoza); Yakitori (probably my favorite among the appetizers, they were flavorful and such a treat to eat); BBQ Pork Belly & Chunky Vegetables (the pork belly was super tender and the fat almost melts in your mouth); BBQ Beef & Chunky Vegetables (the beef was also super tender and juicy); BBQ Prawns & Chunky Vegetables (the prawns were fresh and creamy) and the Mango Lassi (it’s a mix of sweet and tangy, very refreshing!) I also love the Chunky Vegetables because they’re super tasty and are cooked fresh.
