CoCo Ichiban Japanese curry house, Windsor House, Causeway Bay, HK

Came here as an alternate choice to avoid queueing at the neighbour Totoya (sushi/sashimi house).  Took a sofa seat and glad to find such a nice street view to Morton terrace and Tai Hang view from Windsor House.  Talking about Windsor House - still remember the Fox fairy in the 70's?  That related to a no. of baby death from the full month birthday dinner banquets held in the Chinese restaurants of this old place.  All of a sudden, people came here to see the marble wall showing the face of a fox fairy.  In fact, perhaps my eyesight was a bit not so good that I couldn't imagine it's a fox.  However, that caused quite much phobia and so led the management of Windsor House renovated the whole mall.  See how the old Chinese saying - 人言可畏 (Getting frightened from massive people's comments).
Back to this place, the food is at average but in considering the price and the location, it's a good choice for getting a Japanese curry rice.   So a wide range of curry rice or other stewed rice is about HK$55-88.  Pay a little more from HK$10-20 for 2-4 more side dishes from, soup, salad, dessert and drink (with average of HK$5 for each choice).  Lately I found out Perrier is on the choice drink list.  So paying HK$5 for a Perrier at a restaurant is a very good deal.  One more nice consideration is the dessert choice.  That's a Dreyer's ice cream for 2 scoops at just HK$5.   So if you get a curry beef or pork chop curry rice with a salad, Dreyer's ice cream plus a Perrier is just HK$83.
