Katsu curry was nice, basically fried pork over rice with a curry sauce. I forget the entire history of how it winded up being a Japanese cuisine, but I think it's originally from the West/India. But it's waaay better than Indian curry and quite different. More of like a gravy, sometimes with vegetables in it. Very tasty as a comfort food for cold days but also just a yummy dish.



Gyukatsu I described a few posts ago, but basically beef cutlet that's been slightly fried for crisp edges, and then you sear/cook it to your preference; usually that meal included a cabbage salad with an amazing sesame dressing and other items (miso soup was one of them).



The octopus one was a street food from Kyoto. Tasted way better than it looks, lol.



Anything else just ask I guess [emoji38].
Pics or it didn't happen.
