Katsuya holds a "Customer Thanksgiving Day" to commemorate the arrival of 400 stores. For a limited time until August 18, the four menus of "Katsudon (bamboo)", "Roast cutlet set meal", "Grated cutlet set meal" and "Katsu curry (bamboo)" will be discounted by 150 yen. I had a katsudon as a lunch box because it was a good idea.


Katsudon (bamboo) is the second of the three-stage katsudon with Shochikuume. The cheapest "ume" (490 yen, tax not included, same below) is 80g (2.82oz) of loin cutlet, but bamboo is 120g (4.23oz) of loin cutlet. The price is usually 650 yen, but this time it is 500 yen.

This time, I tried to make a lunch box instead of eating it at the store. When you take it home and take it out of the bag, you will be surprised at its size. I don't pay much attention to it when I go in and out of the bowl at the store, but I can see that Katsuya's katsudon is very big.

If you put chopsticks in the lunch box, it would be easier to wash without increasing the amount of washing, but I felt rude to the bamboo bowl, so I decided to move it to my bowl.



Turn it upside down with the plastic lid closed, remove the bento case, cover it with a bowl instead, and turn it upside down again to move it well.



After all it seems more delicious to serve on a bowl. After eating a bite, it's still hot. The katsudon sold at the supermarket is also delicious, but the freshly made meat is tender and the aroma of oil is good, so you can feel the strong taste of katsudon. The egg is also soft-boiled and fluffy, and it goes well with the batter.


Sprinkle your Shichimi peppers to change the taste and enjoy yourself. It is exaggerated to say that the more you add Shichimi to the katsudon, the more delicious it is, but you should not hesitate to say that the pork-flavored loin does not lose the aroma and umami of the meat even if you use plenty of condiments.


The volume is so full that you can feel a little sleepy when you flatten everything. When making Katsudon bamboo for lunch, it is better to lighten the other meals of the day.
