Gin Curry

Everyone knows I am a big fan of Japanese curry.

I came to gain a deep appreciation of Japanese curry for its gooey texture and sweet taste when i started preparing my own lunch in secondary school times. The first dish i could make quickly and beautifully was instant curry roux served with omelet rice.

Was particularly delighted to see a small though kinda packed Japanese curry restaurant opened near HKU. It’s dinner time and I was starving. I immediately ventured in and ordered all my favorite food on the menu - burger with cheese, potato wedges, udon and curry! and voila:-

The sauce was not too thick or super watery. It was a really good consistency. But I’d say its taste was a bit too strong for me. The burger was very nicely cooked with a thick piece of melted cheddar cheese on its top. The cheese diffused the slightly-strong taste of the curry and helped flavoring up the curry. Sunny-side up egg and deep fried potato wedges can’t go wrong.

The only blip of this nice experience was the long waiting time. It took almost 10 minutes to receive my food, bear in mind that I was starving! Or else, I won’t be that impatient.

The dishes are pretty reasonably priced in my opinion, given they are pretty large and very fulfilling.
