A ready-made curry supervised by Tomono Kazuki (Uenoshiba Skating Club), a male figure skater who writes a column for the Mainichi Shimbun entitled “Smile Honestly and Be Happy,” will be released. The dish is packed with the attention to detail of Tomono, who considers curry to be one of his “game meals.” The product will be available on the online site (

This is a joint project with a group company of Daiichi Jyuken (Osaka City), which Tomono receives support from. The curry was made with the aim of creating a Japanese home-style curry that would be enjoyed on overseas tours, and a chicken curry with texture similar to the ingredients used in the Tomono family curry. It is medium spicy so that it can be enjoyed by children and adults alike, and the spiciness can be adjusted by adding the spices provided. Another key point is that no colorings or preservatives are used.

Tomono commented, “I’ve made my favorite home-style European chicken curry, which everyone can enjoy. It’s full of ingredients and very satisfying. You can even adjust the spiciness with the included spices. We put a lot of care into the product packaging as well as the taste.”

The price is 800 yen (excluding tax). The package includes eight original cards of Tomono.

In the 2023-24 season, Tomono has taken on a completely different program than ever before, evolving from the “Naniwa entertainer.” He has vowed to make a leap in the new season with a new “game meal.”[Kurazawa Hitoshi]
