Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu

Conveniently located and good opening specials

Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu is part of a gyukatsu chain, and this new store in Asakusa only opened in the last week. They have a really convenient location (just a few minutes on foot from Asakusa Station), and they had some great opening specials including menchi katsu for 550 yen including tax -- the quality was excellent and the taste was fab. There's a dine-in area but you can also grab items to go, which is convenient if the store is particularly busy or you just don't have time to sit and eat.
