I haven't had much Japanese curry so I'm not sure how this fares compared to other Japanese curries but I was very satisfied by this plate, especially when eaten hot. We ordered level 2 spiciness which was just nice to feel a kick although the effect of the spiciness does not come immediately but rather progressively as you eat more. Other than that, the standard portion of the curry and the rice is very proportionate, though you have the option of selecting more curry/rice at an added cost.
