About

SPICE SPACE UGAYA (スパイススペースウガヤ) is an spice curry specialty shop that opened in 2018 in the "Oku-Asakusa" (奥浅草) area of Taito City (台東区), about an 8-minute walk from Asakusa Station on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line. The owner, a former Japanese cuisine chef, opened the shop after earning the "Spice Coordinate Meister" qualification. The signature is a wheat-free, aromatic curry using dozens of self-ground spices. The wagyu tendon curry earned two stars at the SARAH JAPAN MENU AWARD. A sister shop "UGAYA DELI" is also open inside Matsuya Asakusa department store.

— Oku-Asakusa: a washoku chef wielding 30 spices

The signature is spice curry, made with dozens of self-ground spices and no wheat flour at all. The owner was a Japanese cuisine chef before training for two years to earn the "Spice Coordinate Meister" qualification, establishing an original style that fuses washoku's delicate palate with the spice cultures of India, Sri Lanka, and Southeast Asia. The signature "wagyu tendon curry" (和牛筋カレー) earned two stars at the SARAH JAPAN MENU AWARD and is something of a pilgrimage destination for curry fans. At lunchtime, the shop operates as a spice curry specialty restaurant; in the evening, it switches to a "curry bar" offering international spice dishes with alcohol. A sister shop "UGAYA DELI" is also open inside the Matsuya Asakusa (松屋浅草) department store, offering both takeout and eat-in. In the connoisseur-favored area of Oku-Asakusa, just beyond the tourist core of Asakusa, the shop is loved as a quiet spot.

“Asakusa GF Curry — Aburi-Grilled Chicken”

Inside the Tobu Line Asakusa Station building, on the basement first floor in the deli corner — a shop where you can have gluten-free curry ✨ Seats are counter-only. You can choose rice portion and spice level 🍴 Apparently there's also a kids' curry. [Aburi-Grilled Chicken Curry] Gluten-free ✨ A smooth curry roux made with katsuobushi, soda-katsuo, Hidaka kombu, Miyazaki shiitake, niboshi (dried sardines), and spices. The chicken is bone-in, and tender enough to fall apart with a spoon — delicious. Spice level 2 🌶️ Personally a comfortable level of slight spice 😋
