【About APA President's Curry】

Developed through rigorous taste refinement at APA Hotel restaurants, 'APA President's Curry' is an authentic beef curry made with carefully selected original spices and a smooth, luxurious sauce. Slow-cooked beef and vegetables bring out their natural sweetness. Inspired by 'Kanazawa Curry,' a local specialty from Kanazawa—the birthplace of the APA Group—the curry emphasizes its original flavor, enhanced when served with cabbage. At the official launch event on March 24, 2011, 99.3% of attendees rated it 'delicious' in a post-tasting survey. In addition to individual boxed meals, a commercial version for restaurants is also available. The product celebrated its 10th anniversary in March 2021 and reached a cumulative sales volume of 15 million servings by April 2026.
