Elevated Japanese-Inspired Burgers

ZEN Offers Traditional Katsu Burgers and a Unique Experience

— December 25, 2020 — Lifestyle
If you are on the lookout for traditional Katsu burgers in Austin, USA, ZEN Japanese Food Fast is a must-try place. The establishment partners with local Peeler Farms to ensure the best possible wagyu or akaushi experience.

The Tokyo BBQ burger, for example, is a Texas wagyu burger, with mild cheddar, tempura onion rings, house pickles, Japanese BBQ ketchup, tomato, and miso mustard. In terms of its traditional Katsu burgers, ZEN Japanese Food Fast boasts three kinds—the Chicken Katsu Sando, the Wagyu Katsu, and the Beyond Katsu.

In addition, Peeler is distinguished with ethically raised beef cattle and maintains that "the quality of [its] beef is unmatched in Texas." Meanwhile, ZEN Japanese Food Fast also boasts that it has unmatched buns because "a great sandwich isn't just about the burger, but also the bun." As a result, they've partnered with Sweetish Hill Bakery.
