1F Jikei Bldg., 1-19-18 Hyakunincho, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan
A compact, well-stocked Indonesian grocery in a backstreet one minute from Okubo Station, popular with Tokyo's Indonesian community. Sells fresh herbs, spices, curry pastes, sambal, tempeh, kaffir lime leaves, Indomie noodles and halal meats. Closed Mondays.
Tokyo's South Asian food is dominated by a specific format: a Nepali-run kitchen serving a largely North Indian menu, built around a weekday lunch set of curry, enormous naan and a small salad. It is so consistent that it is effectively its own genre. Underneath it sits a smaller, more interesting layer of genuinely Nepali cooking, and a handful of serious regional Indian restaurants.
