velverse and Nicole: thanks! glad you started the list. (For those interested in this kind of thing: if you follow the link from velverse’s name,you’ll see an exhaustive list that spans continents. Neat idea.)

Matt: it’s not the heat that gets me, it’s the volume. They always serve twice as much as a normal person can eat.

And Hukilau is great; when I first moved to the city I was planning on making it my regular Saturday Night Thing, but I never have the energy to walk up Masonic. But every time I go, I get the Kahlua Cabbage, which would be number 6 on this list.

Wooo.. I love how you do it. You list out the best of the best.

Panang beef sounds like very cool. I love asian food and panang beef seems to be just so cool. I can feel the stew beef melt on my tongue.

Oh.. Thanks for sharing! Love it!

Hm. Well I guess that is one inherant danger in eating Katsu Curry. Did you get the Triple XXX hot version they have at On the Bridge?

And I almost forgot — Iroha on Buchanan (near Japantown) is good. And Hukilau (Masonic/Geary) has great Chicken Katsu Loco Moco. Which isn’t curry, but if you replace “curry” with “brown gravy” and throw a hard boiled egg on top you’d have enough food to kill a lesser man.

Thanks for the recommendations, Matt. I’ll definitely try Enoshima. I really, really want to like On the Bridge, but every time I eat there, it does bad things to me down below.

If you can’t make it out to Berkeley the place I like for katsu curry in San Francisco is The Bridge in Japantown. Enoshima on Chestnut street is also pretty good. And supposedly there is a good katsu curry restaurant in the New Otani hotel but I’ve never been able to find it.
