Niigata Katsudon Tarekatsu

Niigata Katsudon Tarekatsu is a Niigata-style katsudon restaurant in Shimogyo Ward, Kyoto, about a 10-minute walk down an alley from Exit 3 of Shijo Station. It serves donkatsu rice bowls and a vegetable katsudon topped with fried eggplant, broccoli, pumpkin, and corn, with rice soaked in a soy-based seasoning that is not salty. Orders can be placed in English, and both cash and card are accepted. The restaurant has a fast turnover of customers, and the taste may feel different from what you expect from a basic katsudon.
