I Say Curry

Yesterday, I had my first curry experience. My big sister always proud about her trip across South Asia where she ate curry, like every day. So, I’m actually a bit excited to taste how magical the curry is.

GO!Curry opened their first outlet on Cilandak Town Square, and followed by the second one on Pacific Place. The place has a cozy dimmed atmosphere with different table style. The long table with high chair, the bar, and also the normal table for four. The restaurant gives you a 7-Eleven Slurpee style, where you got the power to customize your own curry, ala carte.First you got to choose your curry. There’s brown curry, green curry, red curry, yellow curry, and rogan-josh curry. Every curry has different taste regarding the ingredient or the original place of the curry. Like the brown curry which resembles Japanese curry or rogan-josh curry from India. Since I don’t like spicy food at all, I choose the yellow curry which has more sweetness from the tomato (and cashews maybe), while my sisters got the red spicy curry and the rogan-josh curry—the house special.

After that, you need to choose the spiciness level from mild (the one that I choose :D), medium, hot, very hot, and insanely hot. Then here comes the rice. There are three selections from the long grain rice, cilantro butter rice, to aromatic yellow rice. The three of us agreed to choose the cilantro butter rice though I think the yellow rice has more flavours on it.
The last step is to choose the topping, the most powerful choice. My sister ordered the Australian Oxtail and Lamb Cubes with Herbs, while I choose the Breaded Prawn. The other choices are included tandoor chicken tikka, zesty cheese chicken, breaded fish, mixed vegetables, chicken katsu, and New Zealand green shell mussels. Sadly, the sweetness of the prawn made my yellow curry tasted sweeter. But hey, it still tasted delicious. There’s so much things going on my mouth, I don’t know whether it is the herb or something else, so I just keep eating. The cilantro butter is the perfect choice, it must be the crowd favorite. And the most important thing, the portion is considered big (I warn you, the plate is really big~). So you’ll find yourself pleased enough to leave with big smile and full stomach :P

The restaurant carries the motto “Eat Curry. Be Happy.”, which I love. And some extra thing, they have cute paper lining featured their restaurant icons. You can ask for a pencil color and start colored it :)

My first curry experience turns out great. Though I hate spicy food, I’m surprised that I can still enjoy the curry (while curry is famous for its hot complex taste). And I think, it is such a smart thing to give the customer the power to play with their menu. It’s kinda give you the force to come back and try another mix, until you find the perfect taste that give you that ‘whoa’ factor.
