A perfect way to end a chilly day walking around Lake Kawaguchi and exploring the Fuji surrounding area We walked in on a whim on the way back from our hotel, which is a bit out of the way of Kawaguchiko Station, but finding New Akaike was such a treat! The owner was a champion boxer in the late 90's, early 2000's, it was SO cool to see the posters everywhere. The meals were cozy and felt like what we, as tourists, could imagine a home cooked meal after a long day feels like. My partner got the venison curry, which was a little spicy with a tomato base, and I got the classic tempura shrimp curry! Tasty and comforting, you just can't go wrong here.
