Oyakodon (親子丼) is a traditional Japanese donburi, i.e. a dish consisting of a filling served over a bowl of rice. The term "Oyako" means "parent and child", in reference to the main ingredients of this dish: chicken (the parent) and egg (the child). The dish is seasoned with dashi, mirin and soy sauce. It is often eaten at family dinners or in restaurants specializing in donburi in Japan.

Katsudon is a donburi: a Japanese dish consisting of a filling on a bowl of rice. The main ingredient of this donburi is Tonkatsu: breaded and fried pork. "Ton' means pork and 'katsu' means fried, but 'katsu' also means luck in Japanese. This is why the Japanese often eat tonkatsu on the eve of an important event to bring good luck! The special thing about Tonkatsu is that it's made with Japanese breadcrumbs called "panko", which add a delicious crunch 😋
