Celebrate Doyo no Ushino Hi with Luxurious Gyukatsu Combos
As the summer heat sets in and the days grow longer, a cherished Japanese tradition returns: Doyo no Ushino Hi. This special day is dedicated to enjoying grilled eel, a dish believed to provide strength during the hot season. This year, Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu, a renowned beef cutlet specialty restaurant headquartered in Kyoto, is making waves in the culinary scene with its exclusive offerings.
Exclusive Menu for Doyo no Ushino Hi
Starting this year, customers can place orders for two unique dishes that blend traditional flavors with innovative presentations: the 'Zenith of Luxury Unagi Gyukatsu Jyu' and the impressive 'Whole Eel Cutlet Jyu', each promising a delightful culinary experience."
Zenith of Luxury Unagi Gyukatsu Jyu
This dish is a luxurious arrangement that allows diners to enjoy both Gyukatsu and Unagi Katsu at once. The beef cutlet is served with a special sansho sauce, topped generously with Kujo negi, a mild and fragrant green onion native to Kyoto. On the side, the Unagi Katsu, featuring fragrant shiso and sansho, brings a refreshing depth to the meal.
