- ‘Bose of Nakamuraya: An Indian Revolutionary in Japan’, is a book written by Professor Takeshi Nakajima.
- In this book, Proffessor Takeshi has mentioned that it was Rash Behari Bose who introduced orginial Indian Curry to Japan.
- According to this book Mr. Bose launched authentic Indian Curry at a new Nakamuraya cafe in 1927.
- The book says that, Bose wanted to prove that the so called Indian curry the Japanese were used to was a colonial invention. Hence getting his recipe on the Nakamuraya menu was therefore part of his anti-colonial struggle by trying to win back India’s food culture from British hands.
- Rash Behari Bose, born in 1886 in rural Bengal, was an Indian Revolutionary leader. He was part of a group who threw bomb at the Viceroy, Lord Hardinge in December 1912 during the celebration of new imperial capital in New Delhi. In April 2015 he fled to Japan.
