"Like a cleansing crystal, eating a meal at Volcano Curry is one way to set you on a positive path. The casual Japanese spot in the Richmond has everything from udon to mini fried Spam sandwiches—but you’re here for the curries. The best part is that they're under $15, yet big enough to leave you with leftovers—or, most likely, cradling yourself after you devour everything up. A plate includes white rice, a protein like pork katsu, chicken karaage, or fried fish, and enough curry (containing big chunks of potatoes and carrots) to fill a pool—a.k.a. it's exactly the kind of soul-saving food you want while mulling over deep questions like, "Did I really need to order that hotel-quality bathrobe?"
