EDIT: SOLVED! It was Currytiner in Ropponmatsu.

For some reason I was dumb and only took one picture of the plate, and not the building itself, so I'm having a terrible time finding it. It was cash only, so no credit card statement. Here's everything I know about it:

• It's Japanese-owned and in the style of spice curry but didn't sell generic "spice curry" plates, but rather various named curries based on Indian, Thai, and other South Asian dishes. I don't remember any of the names unfortunately

• it's on the west side of Fukuoka city, I found it right off of a main street while cycling mostly backstreets from Itoshima toward Yanagibashi Rengo Market, probably about 30 minutes from my final destination just south of the market

• There were a couple of table seats, and I sat at the counter

• Menu was a pick 1/2/3 option

• There was a large TV next to the counter continuously playing Japanese-directed street food videos set in India

• Got a shot of mango lassi for free

• It was a standalone place and there was no one else there at noon, so probably not a top choice shop, perhaps because of its off-center location

If any of this rings a bell, please let me know. I'm losing my mind.

For me it's that both the U.S. and KWP leadership have historically violated the rights of North Korean people but in different ways, and changing either wouldn't fix the problem nearly as well as changing both.

1. Because it's not really about Japanese food, it's about American spending power

2. Because while many people here are American, many are not American nationals or do not reside in the U.S.

3. Because while it may not seem like it, it's very insulting to a large number of people. U.S.'s GDP/c is around 90,000 USD. Japan's is around 35,000. Americans only make up a small fraction of in-bound tourists to Japan. 8 of the top 10 inbound countries to Japan are in Asia, and those countries also average around 36,000 USD per capita. For those of us living in or near Japan, the quickly climbing cost of food in Japan is making it harder to visit and enjoy things, while people three times richer than us are celebrating how cheaply they can eat luxury food every night.

Show some respect.
