In this episode of Zeene's Epic Eatz, I visit the Mountain View location of the international Korean chain, Paris Baguette, to share with you one of my most favorite comfort foods; French-style Japanese curry filled buns, also known as kare-pan (for "curry" or "kar-ee" and pan meaning bread). These delectable breads are filled with rich, thick Japanese mild curry studded with bits of diced potatoes, carrots, and corn. We also learn a new word, "kakushiaji" which means "hidden flavor" and aptly describes the hidden sweet component -- usually apple or honey -- to balance out the earthiness of the curry spices.
