Event Overview


PEPOWN in Chigasaki, Kanagawa, is set to host a "POP UP CHEF!" session with NEWROSE on Wednesday, July 22, from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. In the post, NEWROSE is introduced as a curry shop from Hiratsuka, centered on a "Modern Japanese Curry" concept.

Food and Beer Pairings


The menu includes "Neo Murgh Makhani," NEWROSE's take on butter chicken curry; "Hotel Beef," a richer, spicy curry made with red miso, red wine, and bonito flakes; mixed rice curry; nam pla-spiced roasted edamame; and oriental mixed nuts. The lineup ranges from spicy snacks to fuller curry dishes.

Three beers are listed as pairings:

- Seikatsu / Faló Brewing (Miyagi) / Helles Lager, 5.0%
A gentle lager meant to bring out the flavor of the curry without overpowering it.
- Foo Foo / 南会津マウンテンブルーイング / Hoppy Brown Ale, 6.0%
A malty brown ale recommended with the rich, dry Hotel Beef curry.
- Picnic Session / Hakuba Brewing Company (Nagano) / Session Ale, 4.5%
A light, easygoing session ale suited to spicy snacks and a first round of drinks.
