At Lunch Now: Go Go Curry pandemonium
the line was way too long. Apparently lunch was 55 cents, and to
compound the problem, there was no take-out available… you could only
eat in. According to their website the 55 cent deal lasts until today (or 555 servings)- but the Katsu is $5 for the entire month of May,and it looked and smelled amazing. More on this soon.

my coworkers and i just grabbed a bite there - food was pretty good. can’t beat 55 cents for a nice fried pork cutlet over a bed of rice and some good dark curry. was a bit jarring when the soda cost more than the food.
also - we just realized that Go Go actually means 55 in japanese…and that it might be named after hideki matsui of the yanks. they even have a special where whenever hideki matsui hits a homer, the next day you get a free topping on your curry.
but you have to wait until june 1st, when their grand slam meal, toppings, and take out becomes available.

If the place is named after Matsui, then why do they have King Kong for a mascot? Shouldn’t it be Godzilla?

Did this take over for the Ramen/Udon place? They had good, cheap noodle bowls (pretty close to the kind I had in Japan). I used to go there about once a week and then, all of the sudden, it was gone…
Yup. It’s where Ramen King used to be. As a matter of fact, I’m pretty sure it’s the same owner, chef and staff… -zach
