老饕の咖哩專賣店 永康店

The "Old Gourmand Curry Specialty Store" is located on Zhongshan South Road in Yongkang, Tainan. It's a restaurant that specializes in Japanese curry. I ordered a beef curry, which uses beef shank, and it tasted alright, but it didn't have that wow factor. The curry itself also leans towards the sweet side typical of Japanese style, which for me lacked the stimulating spiciness, feeling much like the ordinary curry you would eat at home. While this might be the restaurant's style choice, I personally prefer a slightly spicier curry to enhance the overall flavor.

The curry sauce and white rice here can be refilled indefinitely. I saw several university students refilling one bowl after another with rice and curry, and the restaurant is very generous, showing no hesitation in giving large portions. For those students with big appetites, this must be a great deal, but I have already passed the phase of being able to eat that much 😆.

Overall, while "Old Gourmand Curry Specialty Store" doesn't excel in flavor, it makes up for it with generous portions. If you're a big eater or just want an all-you-can-eat experience, their unlimited rice and curry refills might be a choice you enjoy. However, if you have a higher demand for the flavor of curry, this place may not be to your liking.
