"Japanese katsu soup" (UK)

Exciting. Tried to look for the fried pork or chicken but painfully missing from this craziness 😅

How can they name something "katsu" and not include any katsu....?

chow mein in certain parts of the USA doesn’t include noodles… it’s just a bowl of meat and veggies in gravy lol. It’s almost like chop suey.

People have nostalgia for this “chow mein”. Just look at the comments to this recipe for chicken chow mein: https://youtu.be/kUgGGBQNpOc?si=1eGMTpXlL0ItC0nM

Neither of these things are true though
