The \"Mobile Police Patlabor EZY Shanghai Tei Chinese-style Curry\" recreates the recipe left by Hayao Sakimiya, the former owner of Shanghai Tei, a restaurant that appears in the film. Developed with Tadashi Iwamoto, chairman of the Japan Western Food Association, the 180g curry retails for 864 yen and uses ingredients common in Chinese cuisine such as pork, bamboo shoots, sweet bean sauce, oyster sauce, and shiitake mushrooms. Buyers who purchase it together with the simultaneously released Nosan Nika Rice 1kg will receive a card featuring an illustration by Masami Yuuki. Separately, the standing soba chain Nadai Fuji Soba is running its annual collaboration with the series from August 10 to August 24 at eight stores, including the newly added Sangenjaya location. The collaboration features special visuals and tapestries based on the Korokke Soba menu item, and select stores will display Patlabor figures in sample cases.","whyItMatters":"The Shanghai Tei curry marks the first time the franchise has offered a fully recreated in-universe recipe as a retail product, extending the Patlabor brand into packaged food rather than just merchandise.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe Shanghai Tei curry is the latest in a series of food tie-ins for the Patlabor franchise, which has previously collaborated with Nadai Fuji Soba on an annual basis.
