Are you flippin' for a burger?

Wow! Seems like there is something good going on here! Metropolis Tokyo Magazine has a spread on Catooya!

"We landed in Japan scarcely a year ago with naught but the highly controversial Michelin Guide as our compass. A belly echoing from hunger spurned us onwards to sample the great and the good in Tokyo.Three-hundred-sixty-five days and 1,095 or so square meals later, we’ve thoroughly slaked our every craving on l’aventure gastronomique. In that time, we’ve seen an awful lot of oh-so-tastefully drizzled plate art, physics-defying culinary balancing acts, and enough nuanced foams to fill a bathtub. All of this achingly fine food has left us with a new desire: something simple, unfussy, comforting and familiar. Can the lowly cheeseburger ever compete on the same playing field as the innumerable restaurants in Tokyo creaking under the weight of their Michelin stars and starry-eyed patrons?

One prime example is the always wonderful Catooya in Kokubunji."Click here to read the rest of the article.
