What: Chicken katsu curry, £9.15
Where: Wagamama, (wagamamatakeout.com)
Taste assessment: Apparently, the katsu curry is the chief calorific sinner on Wagamama’s menu. But boy is it worth it: strips of deep-fried chicken, with a thick, Japanese curry sauce and sticky white rice. Oddly, the red pickle salad was my favourite bit, and you get a more generous serving as a takeaway than you do in the restaurant. At £9.15, it seems expensive for a desk lunch but it’s perfect on a day you want a treat.
