Curry Chicken
Anytime I wasn't feeling very hungry when I was visiting my Grandfather, he would always take me out for something with curry in it. He said that it would increase my appetite, and I guess it worked because I always ended up eating way more than I usually do. So, if you want a meal to pig out on, try this. I doubt that you'll have any left-overs. If you don't like really spicy food though, you might want to decrease the amount of curry paste by half. However, if you just can't seem to get food spicy enough for you, you can double the amount of curry paste.
