Spotlight: CoCo Ichibanya Hamburg Curry

The first meal in Tokyo had to be Coco Curry, and thankfully there was one close to our hotel. I made my way over after dropping off my luggage, and though I hadn’t intended on it, the Hamburg Curry caught my eye once again.

Tonkatsu Curry & Aji Hurai Curry

I love all types of curry and almost always am down to get some – Japanese curry isn’t readily available here but I was having withdrawals after our trip to Japan so we hunted one down.

The Bombay Grill

Karahi paneer, naan, and butter chicken

My mom discovered this place on the Internet, and decided to take us as she loves curry and wanted to try a new place. Located in a nondescript plaza, the Bombay Grill has quickly become one of my family’s favourite places to eat, and we often bring people here when they come to visit.

Khao San Road

Khao soi

Update: As of 2017, Khao San Road has moved to a new location.

If you’re talking about Thai food in Toronto, Khao San Road will undoubtedly come up in conversation. Although I had always been meaning to pay a visit, the stories of long lines to get in have always been a deterrent. A couple of weeks ago we were in the area with time to kill, and not being terribly hungry, we decided to finally drop by and line up if so required.
