iPhone 079 - Tenshin Don

Japanese seems like to have don; bottomed with rice, if it tops with mabo-tofu, it becomes mabo don, if with tempura, it becomes ten don, etc. 

Apparently there isn't Tenshin Don in China, it is one Chinese dish by the Japanese. According to wiki, there are many unconfirmed sources about the original name, though Tenshin is Tianjin city. 

This Tenshin Don made by one Hong Kong restaurateur, appeared on TV program on Saturday night, Chubo desuyo! (Kitchen here!). 

For the gravy called An, west Japan likes to use soy sauce as the base. Whereas for east Japan, normally black vinegar is the base. I like black vinegar very much. 

The eggs fried with crab meat is a dish in Chinese called fuyondan. Japanese used that and turned it to be one Donburi.
