Turban Curry
A curry restaurant nearby most of the Kanazawa attractions (Kenrokuen, Kanazawa Castle, 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art), and also located on the main street of the city where you can easily catch buses.
But not going to lie this is our second choice for dinner that night, as our initial plan was to dine at Nodoguromeshi Hompo Itaru again, but the queue is too long.
For info regards to Nodoguromeshi Hompo Itaru, we went 30 minutes in advance prior to store opening and there are already around 50-60 people in the queue and were crowding outside the restaurant. I believe there’s an event nearby the city that day, thus lots of people in the area also. So we take it as a sign we are not meant to have another go at the Nodoguro heaven.
Lset Curry (small)
Turban Curry
Lset Curry - Small (¥780)
Comes with pork cutlet, wieners, hamburger steak, cabbage, and a small portion of rice.
Definitely suitable for me who is more on protein and vegetables, can’t even see the carb (rice) as it was covered by the meat. You can order a bigger portion of rice (ie. Medium or Large) if that’s your preference.
The food came hot (and crispy for the cutlet), as it was only prepared and cook after you ordered.
Flavour-wise it is ok, nothing great but nothing to complain at all, although it gives a very home cook style vibe of meal. The obasan preparing the food are friendly too!
All in all, a no-frills value meal.
Rating: 3/5
Turban Curry (small)
Turban Curry
Turban Curry - Small (¥500)
The basic set of pork, cabbage, and a small portion of rice.
Similar to the Lset which comes with the standard curry and cabbage, but instead of all the proteins, this comes with just a pork patty. The patty is tender enough, seasoning is ok, but comes with a bit of sour note from the seasoning/marinate. Probably their style for preparing this meat, really doubt it is spoiled meat.
As with the Lset rating, all in all, a no-frills value meal. Slightly lesser score due to the sour note which we feel might not be balanced for the overall food in our opinion and preference.

Overall
This is a value meal 100%, rather cramped seating spaces (mainly counter seats) so it’s definitely an eat and go. No frills but no complains either especially at this price point.
This is a good option if you want something decent (both quality and quantity), nearby attractions, and you’re tight on the wallet.
