Donburi Heaven Japan

Hello everyone. I introduce Japanese popular dish "Gyudon". Gyudon (牛丼) is a popular food in Japan. Gyu (牛) means beef and Don is Donburi (丼), which is Japanese "Rice ball dish".

Gyudon is the most popular donburi food but it's not the only one. There are many kinds of donburi in Japan. Check this.

The price of regular Gyudon with miso soup is reasonable, around 300 yen. It is big enough as business man's lunch. At lunch time we come to the Gyudon shop alone or with your colleagues. No, please don't come there with your girl friend on a date. She would be disappointed. Gyudon shops are usually located near a train station and are opened 24 hours a day.

These four are popular Gyudon shops that you can find everywhere in a town.

Payment is in advance or later. It depends on the shops. Matsuya is in advance and Yoshinoya is later. The items of food menu is unique and interesting. Please remember the word. If you ask a staff Tsuyudaku Omori in the shop, you are defenitely veteran in this world. Please Try it.
