i was enjoying some mandu duk for dinner last night, and i noticed someone at the table next to me had what seemed to be a fried pork (or chicken) curry dish. it was a big piece of meat, topped with potatoes, carrots and a curry sauce. smelled awesome, looked yummy. i've been trying to look it up online so i can order it sometime, but to no avail.

any ideas on what this is / how to say it?

Were you eating at a Kimbap Cheonguk? Or similar place?

It sounds like curry donkas. 커리 돈까스 (spelling might be wrong)

Did it look like this?

that stuff is everywhere:)

best ones are sold in specialized donkasu places meant for cab drivers.

i used to eat this daily at my first hagwon until i couldn't stand it anymore

Actually the best ones are in Japan, where the dish was slapped together in the first place. Some of them now include a side of radioactivity, however. Still, if you find your way to a place that uses good quality pork, it'll pretty much be worth it.
