Katsu curry/katsu kare recepie

Yeah its a Zojirushi. Worst thing is i had to buy it on the spot and dint have time to shop around.

 

Banana milk? Wierd!

 

Coconut milk is one thing, but no fucking banana will ever grace my curry.

 

Not with the pound plummeting from 200 Yen + to a barely over 140 yen, the lowest its been for 13 years... it ain't.

 

I have a Zojirushi as well. Not the cheapest
t out there but bloody good rice cookers. I guess that in the UK there hard to find so they bump up the price pretty steep.

Yakumo

 

They are just plain not available here. Theres one person on ebay that i noticed imports them from hong kong. However we had plans to go on holiday and we were gonna bring one back. However to minimise our luggage we got a friend who was coming back from there on a business trip to bring it back as he only had hand luggage. Though we only had 2 days to shop and had to buy it from Sogo. Cost about £160! Still its good rice :nod:

 

Just had a 16,000 yen dinner last night. Good thing I wasn't the one picking up the bill!

 

Wow, out here where I'm at you can go to a Japanese curry place and eat for about 700 yen or so...pricier if you want spicy curry.

Then there's an Indian curry place here that you can get a great meal for 1,500yen or so. A lot cheaper the further you get from a big city

 

Even in the big city it can be had for that money, just don't walk into the first place you see.

 

The meal I posted on the 1st page was 650yen iirc. The cheese hamburger menu cost extra though, a regular kare (kare mud + rice) was only about 400.

Not comparable to what GP ate of course, but you can eat for that kind of money in every country. I just recall that restaurant in Paris close to Champs Elysées where they had dinner for 250€.

 

I think the difference is that in Japan, even a meal in the 700-1000 yen range can actually be pretty decent. Other countries that tends to be garbage.

My meal was a business dinner... the other guy's company paying. I don't spend that much on myself.

 

the comparison might be unfair, but i ate like a king in Africa almost for free :thumbsup:

 

While millions there starve...haha the irony :110:
