Mushroom curry with rice

I took a vegetable curry with mushrooms and added okura and yam. I choose the standard rice, spice and mildness. The dish was tasty and filling. However, I didn’t like the okura and yam. It had a really slimy texture. As a side dish I ordered a corn salad. There were three salad dressings on the table to choose from or mix. As far as I know they were all vegan although I’m 100% not sure.

My father is vegetarian one day a week, and on holiday in Japan we struggled to find places for him to eat. We chanced upon Coco Ichibanya, which is a Japanese curry chain found throughout Japan. The staff were very understanding, and they gave us a few recommendations / add-ons. We decided on the mushroom curry, they were generous, and in addition, they provided complimentary pickles. I would highly recommend this place for vegetarians travelling Japan.
