i have tried this dish at this restaurant you recommended.
i was assured that what i ordered was indeed the hijikata special and not some kind of misunderstanding of a request for extra toppings.
my real review:
the katsudon was quite lovely, if not a little dry. it had a very authentic flavor (from what i could tell) and the rice was prepared.
but after consuming this dish i do not think i shall ever need to eat mayonnaise again. i have eaten enough mayonnaise to last through my lifetime. it adulterated much of the rice and katsudon, which is a shame.
i do not know who requested katsudon be covered in so much mayonnaise -- perhaps a dollop or two would be pleasant -- but i would advise they cut back on the portioning. perhapsit would also save them on food preparation cost.
