Kiryu, Gunma, Japan｜Shitamiya

Kiryu's famous restaurant serving pork cutlet rice with soy sauce. The sauce has just the right amount of sourness and sweetness, and goes very well with rice without being cloying. Even though it was noon on a weekday, there were many people lining up to eat. A famous restaurant providing the famous Kiryu sousu katsu-donn (fried pork dipped in Japanese sauce, served with rice). The balance of sweet, sour and saltyness is great. Many people will visit here even at a weekday noon.

Amazing katsu. If you're nearby, definitely get lunch here.

This is a famous restaurant in the area where you can enjoy the local gourmet sauce katsudon. A bite-sized cutlet is dipped in sweet and salty sauce and placed on top of rice. This restaurant's crispy batter, soft meat, and moderately firm rice are popular among men and women of all ages. I received the ``(loin) fatty seaweed'' sauce katsudon. As the name suggests, it has a good amount of pork fat on it, and is recommended for those who like fat. I could feel the flavor of the fat stronger than the regular sauce katsudon, and it was very delicious. Katsudon in this region often refers to sauce katsudon, but egg katsudon is also available. There are also tatami seats, so it's safe even if you have small children. It's a famous restaurant in the area, and there's often a long line of customers at lunchtime, so it's a good idea to leave plenty of time to visit.
