Gyudon

Gyūdon (牛丼), often literally translated into English as beef bowl, is a Japanese dish consisting of a big bowl of rice topped with beef and onion simmered in a mildly sweet sauce flavored with soy sauce and mirin. A very popular food in Japan, it is commonly served with pickled ginger and a side dish of miso soup. Gyu simply means beef, and don is an abbreviation for donburi, the generic name for a big bowl of rice with a topping. Gyudon can be found in many Japanese restaurants and some fast food chains specialize exclusively in the dish. The largest gyudon chain in Japan is Yoshinoya. As a consequence of the fear of BSE and a ban on imports of American beef, Yoshinoya in Japan (and most competitors) were forced to terminate gyudon sales on February 11, 2004.
