Katsuo Udon
Curry Udon with Chicken Thigh
Date of Visit: 14 May 2020
Katsuo Udon is a really popular Japanese udon restaurant in Cheung Sha Wan, there is always a queue outside the little restaurant which only has a small number of seats at the bar tables inside.
I was lucky to get in the restaurant without waiting. Perks of solo diner visiting at non-peak dining hours.
I took some time to study the menu, and decided to go for Curry Udon with Boned Chicken. The chicken came first, and I was genuinely surprised by the size of the chicken thigh! As I was only expecting chicken wings for “boned chicken”. This chicken thigh had crispy, flavored skin. And the meat underneath was so tender and juicy!
The curry udon was absolutely amazing too! The curry soup broth was not as thick as ordinary curry, which made a superb flavored broth to enjoy the udon with. The udon was very al dente itself, and I was lucky enough to see the chef make it from dough with the machine in front of me. Very amusing, and it actually made me appreciate my food more.
I wonder when could I visit Katsuo Udon again for their delicious udon, as well as trying the tempura…
