This chain restaurant is famous in Japan for its massive portions of Japanese curry, served with a gorilla mascot. You order at a machine right at the entrance. While the reviewer wished for more spice, it's known for being incredibly tasty and satisfying.
Go Go Curry Tambaguchi, 1-107 Chudoji Kitamachi, Shimogyo Ward, Kyoto, 600-8812, Japan
- World Champion Curry (Pork & Chicken Katsu) · ¥1200 — A King Kong-sized portion of curry, weighing at least 5 pounds, featuring pork katsu, chicken katsu, four sausages, two shrimp tempuras, a whole egg slice, a ton of cabbage, and cheese, all on a mountain of rice. The katsu is crispy and golden outside, tender and juicy inside. The gravy is thick and peppery, though the reviewer wished for more spice. It's a substantial meal, almost a food challenge.

A cafe in Sanjo that caught the reviewer's eye with its lovely ice cream, beautiful cakes, and especially its gold matcha ice cream. It's a great spot for dessert after a huge meal.
Green Door, 448 Hachikencho, Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto, 605-0027, Japan
- Gold Matcha Ice Cream Sundae · ¥1200 — A beautiful soft-serve matcha ice cream sundae covered in a soft gold sheet, served with popped rice on the bottom, matcha jelly, matcha powder, a mochi, a matcha dango, and soft tender tofu skin. The gold itself has no flavor, tasting like rice paper, but the overall sundae is enjoyable. The rice puffs add a nice crunch, and the matcha jelly is smooth with a huge matcha flavor. It costs 1,200 yen (about ten bucks).
