Best Meal in Tokyo! Gyukatsu Motomura | Japanese Food

[ NO TALKING. JUST FOOD. ]
I've eaten a lot of different things in Japan, but not many can beat the consistency of melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness and value for the money that gyukatsu does.
As far as I'm aware, there are two main chains of gyukatsu restaurants in Japan: Motomura, and Kyoto Katsugyu. Motomura is far superior. For only around $14 US you can get a 130g, excellent quality marbled steak with a side of multi-grain rice, miso soup, mentaiko (cod roe), potato salad, Japanese pickles and cabbage salad. And what's more, the popularity of this dish has not yet spread out west. You simply can't get gyukatsu of this quality for this price outside of Japan. I've eaten Gyukatsu Motomura so many times, and every time it surprises me how incredibly good it is. It remains, for me, one of the best foods in Tokyo.

In this video I include some tips about how choose locations to avoid the crowds, and how to eat your gyukatsu.

During your next trip, give Gyukatsu Motomura a try for yourself:
