We serve freshly fried tonkatsu and freshly cooked rice at the optimal time so that you can enjoy them at their most delicious . The taste of freshly prepared food will become a memorable dining experience.
② Carefully selected ingredients and expert craftsmanship create exquisite tonkatsu.
We carefully prepare the finest pork from all over Japan by hand, and then lightly fry it in refined sesame oil to bring out the full flavor of the ingredients and the sweetness of the high-quality fat. The pork cutlet, fried slowly and carefully in low-temperature oil, is an exquisite dish where the crispness of the coating harmonizes with the moist tenderness of the meat .
③ Rice cooked in a traditional iron pot, filled with the aroma and flavor of freshly cooked rice.
Rice is cooked to order for each customer and served in a copper pot . The aroma that rises the moment you open the lid, the glossy shine of the rice, and the sweetness and texture unique to freshly cooked rice further enhance the deliciousness of the tonkatsu.
●The joy of choosing expands the range of flavors●
① Fresh breadcrumbs that capture the deliciousness of the ingredients
The fresh breadcrumbs, which are crucial to the final finish of our tonkatsu, can be chosen from "coarsely ground" and "finely ground . " Coarsely ground breadcrumbs offer a crisp texture and savory aroma, while finely ground breadcrumbs provide a light and delicate mouthfeel . Each has its own unique appeal, allowing you to fully enjoy the deliciousness of the ingredients.
② Miso soup that lets you savor the flavors of the season
You can choose between a mild "pork miso soup made with koji miso" and a "red miso soup" made with seasonal ingredients . The unique characteristics of each type of miso and the flavors of the season enhance the deliciousness of the tonkatsu and the sweetness of the rice, leaving a richer aftertaste.
