Minato City, Tokyo, Japan｜Tonkatsu Aoki Daimon

There is a good reason why people line up in front of this restaurant. You get a lot of food for little money, so go in there whenever you are extremely hungry. The food itself was great. I couldn't finish my portion, so I asked if I could take it home with me. They immediately brought a box to wrap it up. Another very convenient thing: You can order from a vending machine. If your Japanese isn't so strong, you don't need to talk much.

In March 2018, I personally feel that the comparison at this price is for reference only: Meat quality ★★★★★★★★☆☆ 8 stars Fried ★★★★★★★★☆☆ 8 stars Side Dishes ★★★★★★★☆☆☆ 7 stars Rice ★★★★★★★★☆☆ 8 stars "Crazy! Lin SPF pork x curry rice, I can only say that this may be the craziest combination." Whenever the seasons change, the body will always involuntarily want to eat something different. Especially when winter is over and spring is coming. The warm sunshine makes the whole body feel lazy, the person is lazy, and the stomach is also lazy. The Erlang family, which I usually like to eat in winter, suddenly felt too much. And what about sashimi? It felt a little too cold again. What do you want to eat? I just want to eat some hot, fragrant or spicy food, which can stimulate my appetite. To put it bluntly, it is a bowl of curry rice, if possible, plus a piece of pork chop. However, I want to pay more attention to this pork chop. I want the kind from the pork chop shop, not the ready-made one from the special curry shop, just take it out and wrap it in flour, and each piece is exactly the same. It is best to take it out without being floured, and then coat it with flour and fry it in front of me. When it is cut, you can still hear the crisp sound of the knife cutting the fried skin. The pork chop had better not be too big, because what I want to eat is curry rice, and I don’t want to feel sleepy after I’m full. But I also hope that the pork chop is both fat and thin, and it is delicious with dipping sauce alone. You said you have to wait? It doesn't matter, in front of food, there is always time. And I hope this bowl of curry pork chop rice is not only sold at noon, but also sold at night. Because it is the most comfortable thing to go home after eating and walking in the cool night breeze. So I hope it is the curry pork cutlet rice in the pork chop shop, not the curry pork cutlet rice in the curry shop. It's a pity that good pork chop restaurants think that as long as there is pork chop rice, such as Nariko, Tonta, Maruichi or Marugo and so on. But in fact, it is true that there is nothing wrong with focusing on a single delicacy. But if you make a curry of the trimmed pork and fry it with a small pork chop, it's a dream combination. Don't blame me for asking too much, because there is such a store, and I know that there are many people like me in the world. This 3.83-point "とんかつ大门檍" provides such curry pork chop rice. If you look at all the branches as one, and if you look at the item "Curry pork chop rice", then its curry pork chop rice, maybe It is number one in Japan. Curry pork chop rice: 1200 yen. Let me talk about the part that I think is great. First of all, the rice is really delicious. Each grain of rice is full of water, but not too soft. When eating with curry, the grains are distinct and will not stick together. It is not too dry when served with pork chops, and it provides rich layers when eaten with crispy pork chops. The curry is a little spicy, not too sweet, and the spiciness is just as good as eating another bite of white rice. The stewed meat inside is also Lin SPF pork, which is very sincere, and the large pieces are cooked very soft. And I'm going to talk about this pork chop. Because it is curry pork cutlet rice, it is fried more cooked. If you order the pork chop rice set meal, the pork chop is thicker, and you will see the pink color I mentioned earlier. The meat is fresh enough, the lean meat is tender and juicy, not rough at all. The fat part is super fresh and sweet! ! ! I have tried all three kinds of salt. When I put the whole piece of fat in my mouth, the saltiness of the salt is first, followed by the sweetness of the fat. After swallowing, lick your lips from time to time to relish the caramel-like flavor.

---------------------------- 2022.12.11 Sun It was closed on Sunday. I'm not sure but it used to be open on Sunday, too... Maybe next time then. ---------------------------- 2022.10.15 Sat Visited just 11:00am, a group of four people were waiting in the line. But the table inside was all set and the attendance was so smooth. I could learn something from it. l ordered 上ロース(1500JPY). The food was good as usual! ---------------------------- 2022.03.26 Sat Visited around 12:30, four people were waiting in the line. They change the order system so I had to buy a ticket at the vending machine. l ordered 上ロース(1500JPY). Since I showed the ticket before I got seated ,so I could start to eat around 12:45 and left the restaurant at 13:05. It's a little tiring, but it's worth waiting. ---------------------------- 2021.12.19 Wed Visited at 11:00, I didn't need to take a line at this time. It's not so busy today because some people were already taking their new year holiday. I ordered ロースカツ定食(ro-su kastu teishoku 1200JPY). ---------------------------- 2021.12.11 Sat Visited at 13:00, 9 people were waiting and the staff said it'll take about 30 minutes to get seated. So I took a rain check for this time. BTW they adopted a ticket machine lately. ---------------------------- 2021.10.16 Sat Visited at 13:00, three people were waiting and five more people came in the line after I joined it, but the staff asked me a order while I was waiting. l ordered 上ロース(1500JPY). I could start to eat around 13:15 and left the restaurant at 13:35. ---------------------------- 2021.07.14 Wed Visited at 10:55am, and I was second person to take a line. The line has 3 person when it opened at 11:00. I ordered ロースカツ定食(ro-su kastu teishoku 1200JPY). I love this Tonkatsu with four types of salts. And even the porks in the miso soup were great! BTW did they change the BGM?? It's local radio station (Tokyo FM) today. ---------------------------- 2021.04.28 Wed Visited at 10:50am, and I was the first person to take a line. The line has 3 person when it opened at 11:00. I ordered ロースカツ定食(ro-su kastu teishoku 1200JPY). There was a sign for Mokushoku(eat in silence) I think the sanitation for covid-19 has been stronger than last time which is good for me. I thought there were 3 kinds of salt but there were 4 at this time. I like it, too. ---------------------------- 2021.02.23 Tue(Holiday) Visited at 12:50, I could get in without waiting in the line at this time. l ordered 上ロース(1500JPY). It was really good as usual. And I think 12:50-13.00 is not so busy, so it should be a nice timing to visit. ---------------------------- 2020.12.19 Sat. Visited at 11:00am, but it's already 4-5 people were waiting outside. l ordered 上ロース(1500JPY)this time. I realized that the miso soup has some pork meat inside, it was good! BTW the entrance door was open because of ventilation, I guess. So it was really freezing at the seat near the entrance. ---------------------------- 2020.08.04 Visited at 11:20am, but it's already full inside so I had to wait for taking a line outside. (In spite of coronavirus, this restaurant is so popular!!) Ordered ロースカツ定食(ro-su kastu teishoku 1200JPY). You can get it only weekday(Mon-Fri). I love to eat them with three kinds of salt. Only one thing I don't like here is music is too young?! for me :-) ---------------------------- 2020.03.21 Second visit. A famous Tonkatsu restaurant in the local. (main shop in Kanata and one in Ginza). l tried 上ロース(1500JPY)this time. If you visit in weekdays, there are more reasonable one. It was one of the best Tonkatsu I've ever had!! Try it with salt(there at three kinds on the counter), not with source. The source is good with cabbage though. Japanese masterd is not bad with the Tonkatsu. *English, Chinese and Korean menu are available. *Since the restaurant is very famous, you have to prepare for take a line. ---------------------------- 2020.03.16 Visited on Monday, but it's closed.
