## In short

Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch is a gyukatsu (deep-fried beef cutlet) Japanese restaurant on the basement floor of the LG Building on Huam-ro near Seoul Station, where every table gets a mini cast-iron brazier for grilling sirloin gyukatsu yourself. Set 1 — two sirloin gyukatsu plus two drinks — costs 42,000 won, and rice comes with free refills, so two people ate well. Crisp outside and medium-rare inside, the sirloin was best dipped in turns in wasabi, salt and Ichigyu's house sauce.

Being able to cook tender beef sirloin exactly to your liking on the cast-iron plate made for a hearty, satisfying meal — here's my review of Ichigyu Seoul Station Branch.

Sirloin gyukatsu: thin, crispy breading wrapped around moist, rosy-red sirloin, neatly sliced medium-rare. You could tell the meat quality was good just from the look of it.

### How the sirloin gyukatsu tastes grilled on the brazier

After grilling it lightly and taking a bite, the outside was crisp while the inside stayed juicy and melted away. It was clean and light with a dab of sharp wasabi and a pinch of salt, and it also paired wonderfully with the sweet-savory house sauce or the spicy chili sauce.

Being able to adjust the grilling to your taste and eat it warm meant every last piece was enjoyable — a meal that lived up to its reputation as a Seoul Station favorite.
