With over 1400 outlets spanning 12 countries, CoCo ICHIBANYA is renowned for its delectable Japanese curry offerings. This anniversary celebration promises an unforgettable Japanese dining experience, complete with enticing offers and interactive activities for all to enjoy.

Devesh Srivastava, CEO of CoCo ICHIBANYA, India, expresses his excitement, “We are ecstatic to celebrate the anniversary of CoCo Ichibanya’s first outlet at Cyber Hub and unveil something new around Gurgaon as well. As the name suggests, Ichibanya means number one which reflects well in our menu, services and experience. With the celebration, we are bringing something new to the table, that is, Japanese comfort food, which is what most shoppers crave for especially after a shopping spree. As we aim to bring a bit of Japanese culture with our world famous curries, every aspect of the outlet has been carefully designed to bring the experience of Japan, keeping in mind the Indian tastes and preferences.” 

Situated on the ground floor of Cyberhub, the restaurant seamlessly blends European interior design with Japanese traditions, embodying the essence of 'Yoshoku.' This fusion of modernity and tradition is evident in the ambiance and wax replicas of dishes that aid guests in making informed choices. With its signature white tiles, reminiscent of Yoshoku restaurants, this venue offers a warm and inviting space for casual get-togethers.

Beyond its culinary offerings, CoCo ICHIBANYA introduces Indian elements with dishes like Chicken Curry Keema and Paratha Curry Set. Amidst its inviting atmosphere, the restaurant provides an ideal setting for casual gatherings with friends and family. Devesh adds, The idea that one can have a non-sushi, non-sashimi and all curry Japanese is quite exciting for me and the entire CoCoICHI team. It is the perfect option for curry and spice lovers who are keen to try something different from the typical Indian and Mediterranean curries. We are also excited to see how customers will react to the customizable options we have for our curries as such a system does not yet exist at Indian restaurants.”

As the third anniversary celebration unfolds, CoCo ICHIBANYA presents an unparalleled dining experience that seamlessly blends the essence of Japan with Indian preferences. This celebration epitomizes their unwavering dedication to crafting extraordinary dining moments, in line with their 'number one' philosophy. If you're ready for a palate-pleasing journey, the captivating Cyberhub outlet of CoCo ICHIBANYA is waiting to welcome you.
