West LA: Curry House

I had wanted to go to Hurry Curry of Tokyo across the street but the wait was long and my friend thought we were meeting up at Curry House. They didn’t have a wait so we opted to eat at Curry House instead. I can’t recall if I actually have ever eaten at this location, not when there’s Hurry Curry across the street. I was pleasantly surprised how extensive the menu was.

We put in our orders for curry and I got a salad to start. My friend ordered the chicken ginger curry with a side of tofu. And I had the Keema Curry. I have given up cooking ground meat but will sneak in dishes when eating out. Keema Curry is a ground beef curry that is marked spicy.

I wish I had gotten the cream of corn soup like my friend. My salad must have been straight from the fridge. It was very chilled.

I liked the fact the ginger chicken curry comes with spinach on the rice. It’s like healthy or something.

I should explain Japanese spicy is not really spicy at all if you avoid the dried chiles. After topping my curry with the requisite pickled veg, I dug in.  My curry came with lots of interesting Japanese mushrooms and a soft-boiled egg. The only thing missing was spinach which I could have added.

Curry House is bright, cheery and quick. It’s not bad but I still prefer the cozier Hurry Curry across the way.
