Ever since I brought Yuichi katsudon all the way from Izu to Isehara on that night, it's become our weekly ritual to eat this dish. I made it so many times now I don't even need to measure things anymore. Our relationship surely took a turn when I came back to Tokyo after my trip, but there's no need to share it on the internet, isn't there!

This recipe is for people who prefer crispy katsudon. I think it's the better way to enjoy the fried pork cutlet. This is funny because the first time I had it, I just felt such a strong need to bring it to Yuichi immediately that I forgot how far away he was. Of course, after the long taxi drive, the katsu was already soggy by the time I got to him, but Yuichi still thought it was the best Katsudon he'd had in his entire life.
