Curry House is the El Pollo Loco of Japanese style curry. It's been there forever, you rarely go there, and when curiosity gets the better of you and you sit down at one of their locations, you do you notice that prices have gone up, some curious seasonal items have invaded the menu list, and you end up leaving without any real desire to return at any time in the near future.

My last such trip to a Curry House location produced the following dish above. I think it was a spicy ginger chicken curry. I had never seen it before, but the 11.00+ price tag didn't seem so expensive compared to the price of their regular curries, which had inflated to 9.50 and up.

It seemed like a better choice than getting a curry wrap, but I'm not sure. Like marinara sauce without any garlic, you're left with a distant feeling of something missing from your tastebuds, searching for a taste that isn't going to hit you any time soon.

At least the service wasn't bad; not to say that it was great, but it's what I expected from having paid $11.00 plus tax and tip for a plate of spicy ginger chicken curry.
