The signature dish is the butter chicken curry, bringing together tomato acidity and creamy richness—a plate ordered by almost everyone visiting Katchal Batchal. The menu features original arrangements by a Japanese chef, such as pork vindaloo with Goan acidity and ginger aromatics, and South Indian prawn curry with large prawns submerged in smooth coconut gravy. The seasoning highlights aroma and umami rather than fiery heat. Boneless tandoori chicken cooked in an in-store tandoor oven and cheese kulcha, renowned for its exquisite balance of dough and cheese, also pair excellently with shochu or wine. With just 16 seats including 4 counter seats, the intimate space offers the relaxed calm typical of a second-floor hideaway, making it ideal for sharing dishes with friends. The lunch set, which comes with three kinds of curry, half naan, and half rice, costs around ¥1,500 and is popular for its high level of satisfaction.
