Discover the Flavors of Japan: Nissin Curry Meshi Seafood Edition
If you’re a fan of instant food or looking for a quick and satisfying meal with a Japanese twist, you’ll love Nissin Curry Meshi Seafood. Imagine enjoying a deliciously rich curry, combined with the savory taste of seafood—all in just a few minutes! Recently, I had the chance to try this product during a picnic with my wife, and it was a delightful experience. Let me share my personal review, and why I believe this could be a great option for anyone looking to explore Japanese flavors.
Picnic in the Park: A Perfect Time for Curry Meshi
We had planned a picnic to enjoy the autumn leaves, but due to an unusually warm season, the trees hadn’t turned their beautiful colors yet. However, we were treated to a field full of blooming cosmos and kokia flowers, creating a lovely backdrop for our meal.
For lunch, I brought along Nissin Curry Meshi Seafood. The convenience of carrying a thermos of hot water and a cup of Curry Meshi made it an ideal meal for the outdoors. After pouring the hot water, we waited just five minutes, stirred the curry rice for 30 seconds, and voilà—our meal was ready.
Preparing Curry Meshi: Just Add Hot Water
For our picnic, we wanted a simple, no-fuss meal, and Nissin Curry Meshi Seafood was ideal. The preparation couldn't be easier: just add hot water and wait for 5 minutes. At first, I was a little concerned because after pouring the water, the mixture didn’t look like curry at all—it was watery, and the color hadn’t developed yet. However, after stirring it well at the 5-minute mark, the curry’s color and texture started to appear, giving it a much more appetizing look.
The Taste: A Perfect Blend of Seafood and Curry
Once it was properly mixed, the flavor really came together. The taste reminded me of Nissin’s famous Seafood Cup Noodles, but with a distinct Japanese curry twist. The rice softened the more I stirred, and the seafood flavor blended perfectly with the curry’s richness. Although the recommended 30 seconds of stirring left the rice slightly firm, it still tasted delicious—especially when eaten outside.
At first, the consistency was more like soup, but as I ate, it turned into a rich Japanese-style soup curry with rice. It’s not as spicy as Indian curries, which makes it a great option for those who prefer a milder, yet flavorful, meal.

Why Overseas Fans Should Try Curry Meshi Seafood
If you’re a fan of Japanese cuisine or just curious about Japanese curry, Nissin Curry Meshi Seafood is a great introduction. It’s not overly spicy like some Indian curries, but it has a flavorful depth from the seafood and spices like laurel and thyme. I think it would be a unique and enjoyable experience for people from all over the world, as it combines the warmth and heartiness of Japanese curry with a subtle seafood flavor.
In Conclusion
For anyone wanting to explore Japanese flavors without complicated cooking, Nissin Curry Meshi Seafood is a fantastic choice. With its easy preparation and tasty combination of seafood and curry, it offers a little taste of Japan in every bite.
