Friday, June 22, 2007 Azabu Japanese Restaurant Katsu-Don I decided to take Jun out for dinner at the Japanese Restaurant near our place. Heard lots of good things about it and I didn't hear wrong. It was good, even their miso soup was authentic. Jun had Katsu-Don (omg, I LOVE katsu don and I LOVE theirs, it's simply one of the best I have tasted!), I had Unajyu (Grilled Unagi with Rice - Not shown), and we both had miso soup. YUM. I'm definitely going back and definitely going to take pictures of every dish. Here's the Katsu-Don  "A katsudon (カツ丼) is a popular Japanese food; it is a bowl of rice topped with a deep-fried pork cutlet, egg, and condiments. Variations include sauce katsudon (with Worcestershire sauce), demi katsudon (with demi-glace and often green peas, a specialty of Okayama), shio katsudon (with salt, another Okayama variety), shōyu-dare katsudon (with soy sauce, Niigata style), and miso katsudon (a favorite in Nagoya). Beef and chicken can substitute for the pork. The dish takes its name from the Japanese words tonkatsu (for pork cutlet) and donburi (for rice bowl dish). It has become a modern ritual tradition for Japanese students to eat katsudon the night before taking a major test or school entrance exam. This is because "katsu" is a homophone of the verb 勝つ katsu, meaning "to win" or "to be victorious"." - Wikipedia.
