OMG MY ALL TIME FAVORITE!! My brother was the one who told me that the dips + gyukatsu tasted SO GOOD!! I had to switch both like gyukatsu + wasbi and soy sauce then cooked gyukastus + horseradish sauce

all photos taken using an iPhone / Fujifilm X-T20 18-55 mm

That 40 minute wait was SO WORTH IT. I will definitely line up for this when I go back to Tokyo again!!

It was seriously so good 😍❤️️ I finally understood the hype around Gyukatsu Motomura!!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
