Noda, Chiba, Japan｜Tonchinkan

It's close to the station...I don't know, but it's close to the cycling road along the river, so it's great for cyclists. I ate a minced cutlet set meal. I expected two small minced meat cutlets, but I was surprised to find one large minced meat cutlet. Although it was oily, it was light, and I added some cream croquette to it. It was a satisfying time.

I've been wondering about it for a long time, and I visited for lunch for the first time. First of all, this time I had the upper loin cutlet set meal. It was a very soft and delicious tonkatsu and the cost performance was also good. Next, I would like to ask you to have the cutlet curry.

Visited for tonkatsu for lunch It was an amazing tonkatsu that had many surprises! I thought it was just a tonkatsu restaurant based on the name, but the atmosphere is quite different. It's actually a dining restaurant on the first floor of the hotel that also serves sashimi (currently closed due to the coronavirus) and grilled dishes. When I checked the sign on the way back, it was a Japanese dining bar (lol) The clothing and service of the staff are more like a hotel than a tonkatsu restaurant. However, it was originally located in front of the station, so it seems to be basically a tonkatsu restaurant. Order your lunch top loin cutlet set meal (Yonezawa pork 200g) (1,430 yen including tax) By the way, if it's just a loin cutlet set meal, the grams will be 150g, but the quality of the meat will be the same. To be honest, I didn't have high expectations given the store's appearance, but I was surprised when I saw the pork cutlet that came out. My expectations were betrayed in a good way. Top loin cutlet is the thickest ever Looks like it's about 5cm Perfectly cooked The meat was very good, with sweetness in the fat and juicy and delicious flavor in the lean part. The batter is thin and has a crispy texture. It was delicious with salt. There is a large amount overall I don't know if you can refill the rice, but you can have a large portion from the beginning. And even the default size is quite large (200g) A huge amount of shredded cabbage The miso soup was delicious, and you can change it to nameko soup or pork soup for an additional 110 yen. Honestly, I couldn't help but wonder why a store like this was located in such a remote place with nothing around. If you open a stoic tonkatsu restaurant with only a plain wood counter in a prime location in the city center and set prices at 3,000 yen or more, it will likely become a popular restaurant with lines of people waiting in front of you in no time. Considering the price, it's an extremely cheap price that can only be found in the countryside (excuse me)! The customers are mostly elderly people who seem to be regulars in the neighborhood. They enjoyed a leisurely lunch time talking about everything from stock prices and the economy to history. It seems that almost all the seats in the store are semi-private rooms, with some tatami rooms available. I couldn't see the whole place, so I couldn't tell how many customers were there, but it seemed like it was probably less than half full even during lunch time. You probably don't have to worry about making reservations or waiting in line. The location is easy to find along the railroad tracks, but if you're aiming for a "tonkatsu restaurant" you might miss it. If you look for a business hotel (more like a love hotel in terms of appearance), I think you'll find it easily. I think there are enough parking lots, but please note that the parking lot next to the store has a height restriction (167cm). *There are some parking lots with no height restrictions. Come to think of it, the store name Tonchinkan makes sense. in a good way
